Dear John...errrr I mean FOOD



Recommended Posts

Dear food,

I know it has been a long time since we really sat down and enjoyed each other. I know I have been distant since New Year's Eve, but I promise when I tell you that I hadn't cheated up until that night. I know that this may all come as a surprise, but I have been seeing someone else. Someone who makes me feel better about mysef than you. This new person gives me hope, helps me through a stressful day and in the end I hope will be my dearest companion.

I know that over the last 32 years I have enjoyed my life with you, food. But I must say goodbye. While I will love what you can do to pizza, mexican and Italian all the same, but these are all of the horrible things got me and you where we are today. You should have known for a while that I was unhappy. You knew I was a seeing the doctor for 6 months, in an effort to remove you from my life.

I will miss the comfort you gave me for so many years, but I will not miss the regret I felt after.

I shouldn't throw it in your face, but my new friend well, his name is Lapband, and we couldn't be getting along any better.

Best Wishes to you and yours. May we only meet again when absolutely necessary.

R-

:wink2::rolleyes2::smile::cool2:

      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.
