Day 3 with no pot :]



Recommended Posts

I feel pretty good today. I have been sleeping like crap, as I'm sure you can all imagine. I am up 2 pounds :[ which is depressing. It is also another stress factor since i have to lose 10 pounds now in 33 days. I do feel my relationship with my boyfriend is a lot better even in 3 days. We are actually enjoying eachothers company like we used to instead of sitting on Pete's couch (an Above the influence commercial). I am still pretty irritable. Sorry if i snap at anyone here. I'm trying my hardest to maintain my composure. My wisdom teeth are coming in which are giving me a massive head ache. But over all, at an emotional stand point, I am doing very well. I feel really good about myself today.

I spoke with my mom last night and finally told her that I feel like she would love me less if I ever gained the weight back. She did not take that well. She didn't even deny it. I also spoke with my Grandma and she tried to convice me to leave my boyfriend. For some reason, I now feel like i need to have a break from my family until I can get some things straight in my head. I think my boyfriend has been nothing but moral support. Like I said, when i live at home after the surgery, my mom wouldn't even stop buy ice cream. My boyfriend has gladly started to eat healthy. At least when he's around me :] My family has just filled my head with all these expectations. And you know what, I don't want to live up to their expectations. I want to live up to MY expectations.

We'll see how well i do since it is a 3 day weekend :]

WTG Hollie! If he is supportive in your journey, y'all quit smoking together, then he's a keeper. The family, however, well.....I'll just not make any comments. It is hard when our family isn't supportive. Good Luck!

      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.
