Ahhhhhhh! Bach! Ok, that makes sense! I thought you were sayin' you felt like you needed to do a "5 Day Pouch Reset" to punish yourself make yourself go back to small portions and be a good bariatric patient. :D

No, just that I'm panicking that I've lost my control mechanism. Kitty and I had a really sweet deal with the super-restrictors!

Hmmmm, I forgot about that.

This topic deserves it's own thread. I bet there are other converts feeling the same way

I just thought this may be important info for a lot of people but it's squirreled away where they'll never find it...

But we can totally just keep it here too.

I think my issues are mostly so "squirrelly" that they would just confuse other people. Like being afraid to try solid foods after being on liquids/soups for 9 months. And having to drink with meals, and having an anorexic string bean of a sleeve instead of a banana, etc. You guys already know I'm weird 😉

I get that. My super restriction is gone, and now I think it is just a little more than your average sleeve restriction. And that scares me. :unsure:

Well I don't this that it's really a problem because your goal weights are coming up, only need to maintain pretty soon, and have a lot of exercise in your futures 😎

But it is such a reassuring safety net!

I never doubted I would get to goal. But maintaining long term, that is more daunting! :unsure:

I found out last night that I could eat an entire chicken thigh in one sitting. In October, I was thrilled because I could finally eat a whole leg! Yikes!

Well, Kitty moreso than me. 30 years of marriage does tend to reduce the cardio frequency 😉

      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.
