Went out to lunch and ordered a burger which is unusual for me, however I was told this place had incredible burgers so of course I ordered one. (Picture does not do it justice) It was awesome and I got full really fast. I ate about a third of it. It was a big ass burger.

I’m 17 months out and it’s nice to go out and order “unhealthy ” food on occasion. I’m also glad that I still get full quickly.

Can anyone eat 2 eggs in one sitting. How many months out were you?

I can eat 1 1/2 boiled eggs and I’m almost 6 months post op. Some mornings I can do two but that’s only if I’m super hungry

dinner + more belated bday celebrating at my bfs moms house yesterday.

Ate rice, and carne alentejana (Portuguese pork, potatoes and little necks). They insisted I grab some Brussel sprouts but I didn’t eat them since we know how that went last time. Oh and I also had a rumchata shot and a big bite of the pasteis de nata custard.

Surprisingly I still lost a pound this morning and I ate over 1000 calories last night.

IMHO Hand made burgers do not count as unhealthy 🌈 (It's the mystery meat ones that are worrisome)

Well, partly.

I use one of these cubes that dissolve in Water (tom yum), soak the sea weed, throw everything together in a bowl and microwave it. Let sit and heat up again. I add a bit of palm sugar and coconut milk. Sometimes a bit of additional salt.

Leftovers from yesterday’s dinner, roasted aji panca (Peruvian pepper) chicken and mashed potatoes. I was able to eat the chicken minus the skin and two bites of the mashed potatoes.

      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.
