Daily Menus for Maintenance

Yesterday, Saturday, Jan. 4
Maintenance : 5'2" / 1yr PO Sleeve / 115.1 lbs

----------------------------------------
A couple of Mr's bros were over last night, and we had some serious late nite snacking going on including some VERY filling meatloaf. Went to bed with a relatively full stomach and this morning, I'm feeling so bloated it is NOT pleasant! I seriously feel like I'm still full from last night. Yuck.

Was hoping for visit from the poop fairy for some relief, but alas, no luck. I attempted to go for a a short walk this morning to maybe move things along, but the sidewalks are way to slick and icy, so had to turn back after a couple of minutes.

Taking the Kid to go see Little Women this afternoon and was totally looking forward to sharing a bag of movie popcorn with her (haven't had movie popcorn w/ butter since pre-op). If I don't empty my insides by then, she's gonna be on her own (with the popcorn, I mean, LOL).

1:30pm - salad w/ vinaigrette + carrots + cucumber + 3.5 oz avocado + 2 oz grilled chicken + 1 Keto Flax ChocLin cookie + 1 sugar free Russel Stover chocolate coconut snack

Yesterday, Sunday, Jan. 5
Maintenance : 5'2" / 1yr PO Sleeve / 113 lbs

----------------------------------------
Poop fairies came just in time to relive me of my bloated-ness so I went ahead and got some movie popcorn!

However.

The Kid snuck in some caramel coated popcorn which I figured I could eat..NOPE. I had about maybe 2 handfuls and the poop fairies came back with vengeance 30-40 minutes later. I was diarrhea-ing in a PUBLIC BATHROOM and my attempts to be quiet about it were for naught. OMG so embarrassing. Needless to say I missed about 1/2 a hour of the movie. It was Little Women, so I knew what happens, but still. Shoulda just stuck with the regular popcorn. Boo.

Sadly, yes it was crowded. My stomach was gurgling like a volcano and I was letting out lotsa farts before the trip to the toilet, but the movie audio was pretty loud, and the Kid said she didn't hear any noises coming from me ;) But the washroom was cavernous and had an echo effect. Yikes.

Oh man, I would be so sad if Chicago Mix ever turned on me 😟 I make a special trek and pay outrageous sums of money for popcorn I'm at whenever I'm at ORD. (thankfully not that often or I'd be broke and fat!)

Tuesday jan 7, 29 months PO sleeve
‐-----------------------------------------------------------------
Today was just not my day :( started out as a fast. Felt great throughout the fast no cravings I ate the following after 18 hour fast

6:00- coffee with milk

6:30 blended zucchini Soup

7:00- Keto cookie

8:00- 2 oz salmon

8:30- protien bar and soup broth

Here's where it all went wrong TMI ALERT: I started feeling sick and projectile vomited for 10 min straight. I briefly felt better, than started getting terrible cramps which led to a massive bathroom explosion [emoji90] !!!

Not sure what caused this as I am thankfully feeling loads better now. Was it the fasting? Or something I ate? I doubt it's a bug since i feel better so fast. I'm now scared to try another fast.
Anyways this is my totals though I probably had less from all the vomiting

      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.
