I cheated....any damage???



Recommended Posts

Well it has been 3 weeks since my surgery..and for the first time I cheated. :wub: I am very upset with myself. I went to chilis with my husband and ordered the honey chipotle chicken crispers. It comes with fries and corn. I didnt eat any of the corn. It took me all day to eat 3 crispers and a few frys, and I am so pissed at myself. I drank so much tea yesterday too....so I felt miserable. I felt stuffed. I dont know if I was stuffed from the food or all the tea I had. Right now I am supposed to be drinking 2 cups of slim fast and eating a cup of food. Well yesterday I just ate. I didnt do any of the slim fast. Does anyone know how easy it is for your band to slip??? I am so mad at myself!!!!:thumbdown:Any words of wisdom? I am just so afraid I could have damaged the band.

Probably best to avoid going to those kinds of place until you are ready to move to the "regular food" stage. It's just too tempting.

What's done is done, sounds like you didn't eat the whole plate. I don;t know what kind of tea you had.... sweet tea? All empty calories if it was sweet tea, but you know that. The post op stage is a good time to start getting good band habits. No drinking with our meal or for one hour after. Just get back on track, that's the best thing you can do for yourself now.

      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.
