From the land of casseroles and Jello..... enjoy yourself. I don't mind food...looking at it, anyways.

I love to smell it, look at all the different colors...Mmmm. Love food. But luckily I'm restricted so I just simply pass. Me at a buffet is funny. My lil 4 oz isn't worth the price!

If you don't have restriction yet...it must be trying to diet and not eat. For me, I didn't worry about dieting. I ate what I wanted, when I wanted...within reason.

If someone made a comment to me "you lost 20 pounds so you think you're too good to visit me"... I'd reply, yep...staying away from you has allowed me to lose the weight. Must be allergic to you" :)

Just let them know that the temptation is hard for you to pass up, yet it will make you sick if you don't.

Why are people so rude?

Good for you that you got it done and are getting healthy!

To me it sounds like jealousy but not for the reason you'd think. Seems to me that the parent is lashing out cause suddenly your avoiding him/her because of your surgery, which is true. Can you maybe talk to them and explain that the constant talk/showing of food is bothersome to you right now, explain you cant have it yet and its really hard staying on you diet. Or ask them to find other things to talk about? Or restrain from eating while your there. Heck if your only 8 days out you can always say that getting out is still a bit tiring and just call instead of visiting.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
