They are having a pitch in today.



Recommended Posts

I am almost in tears. I am getting banded tomorrow and my work is having a pitch in today. Big crock pots of food all in the training room. Deserts all over the place and Here I am with my broth and carrot sticks.

I swear I could grab the whole freakin pot of sloppy joes and eat the whole damn thing. I am not even that hungry but my willpower is really taking a nose dive. I really just want to go down their and eat the whole thing.

All I have to say is thank goodness everyone here knows I am getting banded. So if I eat they will all know i cheated

You poor thing. Stay strong, you WILL be able to eat those types of things again, just not in the immediate future.

Here's a (((((((cyber hug))))))) for you!

But I am Stronger Then the Food! (I will just keep repeating it.)

Cerrin,

I do feel for you. This morning they were baking gingerbread men in the kitchen here. Christmas is definitely a tough time to be on liquids! When I picked it, I thought "oh how tough can it be?" Big words coming from a fatty!

But I try to keep in mind that the reason I wanted to do it now rather than AFTER the season is that these ARE my bad foods and if I waited, I would have an EXTRA 10 pounds to take off. Who wants that?

I'll be keeping you in my thoughts and trying to send you positive thoughts.

Steph

Hang in there. I am drinking broth with string Beans right now, and got a flavored Decaf coffee that smells heavenly, so with all the food circulating, especially the kalua cake with fresh whipped cream, I am smelling my coffee very deeply.:biggrin1:

      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.
