Just remembered I puked 2 times yesterday so maybe some of the calories dont count ; )

I know it may not be nice to laugh at this, but I totally did.

More times that I care to remember, I have meticulously measured and entered my food data, only to barf it up or projectile poop it out later.

I too have also wondered how this affects my EOD macros count...😂

Dont have much of a menu to post. Most of what I ate came back up. I spent most of Saturday sleeping (@ms.sss I guess I slept for both of us), but still not feeling better. If I dont feel better by this afternoon will take a trip to urgent care. Trying to stay positive, The 1 plus of being sick is the scale going down lol!

Hoping to get some answers at tomorrow's appointment as to why I've been feeling so bad. Strangely the scale said 171 this morning which is 5 lbs up in 2 days where I haven't really eaten much so either scale is broken or I'm retaining Fluid like crazy.

It's definitely Fluid. No way you can gain 5lbs or real fat in 2 days.

I know it sounds counter-intuitive, but: drink more Water, it'll help with the fluid retention. ❤️

Let us know now the appt goes!

I had a serious sugar meltdown yesterday (read: ice cream & cookies). I KNOW a big part of this is because I did not log as I ate yesterday...I stopped in the afternoon. Normally I would have a visual on MFP of how much I have eaten, and, more often than not, I would put that cookie or whatever away once I saw how much I already ate so far. I generally had the attitude of "whatever...I'm probably so far in the hole today, I'll just throw today out the window". Also I had several Cookies before noon, and that probably set the tone for the day.

Now, I logged everything I ate from memory this morning, and oh man, I really did throw everything out the window.

Anyhoo...I'm dedicated to getting back to my anal logging self this morning, Onwards and upwards.

Hella embarrassing, I walk in to my appointment fasting and full bladder only to find out my appointment is on Thursday!!! Sad to have to wait another 2 days to get some answers. I still have no appetite and crazy pain. This is ongoing for a week already *sigh* it is what it is ...

      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.
