So I did it. I ate 2 peices of pizza for lunch today. I let the craving win over. I am ashamed I did it. Once again I gave into gluttony. The pizza wasnt even that good. I dont get the same "feelings" I use to from eating that I did before being banded. I feel like Ive eaten a rock. No nothing feels stuck, but I just feel heavy. Ive been doing so good too. Im just dissapointed in myself. Im down 40 pounds, and I feel like I am at a stand still. Ive tried to shake things up and change up my routine. Im at a loss, and Im just feeling guilty about what I just consumed. I thought I had this head hunger craving thing taken care of, it seems that it has creeped back up on me. I guess its back to reality tonight for dinner. Who do I think I am? I keep having to tell myself you are a fat girl in recovery, you cant allow those feelings to take you over. Look what happens when you do! Im just venting. I know there are people out here that are in the same shoes as I am. Any words of wisdom would be appreciated. Thanks for reading...:thumbdown:

Don't be so hard on yourself, honey. Everyone slips sometimes and overall you are doing a GREAT job!! It's really part of learning to eat and live totally differently. And look how much you learned too - it wasn't even that good! It did not help like it did before you got banded! All very great signs! Plus you've lost a TON of weight too. I'd say you are doing terrific and you had a slip. Oh well, that's part of life! So call it a learning experience, dust yourself off and begin again tomorrow. It's really OK. You are forgiven!! Now forgive yourself and do something to help someone else for pennance and move on! OK? OK!!

Allis, what's done is done. Take it as a lesson learned and get right back up on that horse! You're doing great!

      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.
