Month-Long Last Supper, anyone?



Recommended Posts

I can't believe that others are going through the 'last supper' thing like I am. For the past week I have been totally blowing it with food. I do great with sticking with my Protein Drinks but when it comes to food choices I totally pig out. I have to have 14 lbs off before I see the surgeon in 2-3 weeks (haven't been given the date yet) and am teetering between having lost 8-12 lbs lost. I could've easily had 15 off if I would just stick with the plan. My family hasn't been very supportive the past 3 days... they keep bringing me food that I don't ask for and instead of rejecting it, I eat it.

I feel everyones pain. Oh man do I ever, when I first got my date I started my 2/3 liquid diet (not required) but (always a but huh?) My 1/3 regular food choices most days are really good. Other days I blow it hard core. Its like my brain is trying to get that last bit of ever so bad for me goodness before I take the plunge so to speak.

I have finally gotten myself out of that mess and am back on a good plan. I went and got some of those lean cuisine meals for my dinners. I still make my kids dinner as usual, but instead of eating with them I eat my prepackaged meal and stay on track. I still have a handful of weeks left (two and some days) and then I am on my way. I am hoping to be closer to 230 then 250 when that day rolls around. Not cause the doc wants it but because I want it. I need to prove something to m'self and I hope I can. If not, no worries I will lose it eventually.

      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.
