Am I becoming obsessive?



Recommended Posts

So, would it be cool with some video games to? my nephews are gaining weight because they play all the day with xbox thing...so some of those video game creators have to do somethig for the fat boy son't you think?

Yeah, I was the same way. I love this more than I can even express it here. Even better than watching the tv's the gyms have had for a long time.

I think I know what you mean... as you lose more and more, you do get obsessed... it's all I think about, it's all I talk about.... it's almost everything. So, yes... I do understand that you now have a new obsession. I know that Oprah did a big show on it... but those obsessions were gambling, drinking, or shopping. How cool to have an obsession with working out?! My obsession is about what I eat... I do the elyptical 3 times a week and make sure the other days I do walking/hiking... or something else. No matter what... obsessive people have to have SOMETHING to obsess over... you are very LUCKY that yours is a healthy one. Just make sure you take care of your feet (bone spurs, and loosing toenails) and knees (torn)... and you will end up the healthy one. If you keep it up WHEN you know it's hurting you... then it's time for help.

      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.
