Just a crazy food question

Try the Fiber One Carmel Delight. It's super high in fiber and as you know, things highest in fiber will keep you full longer. It tastes good too!

It has like 9 grams of fiber per serving. Just be sure to watch your carb count the rest of the day is all!!! :crying:

i was never a milk drinker prior to banding - didn't do cereal for that reason, but my tastes have changed drastically & i actually crave milk/diary - every day....and have it.

last night for diner i was craving PB&J and HAD to have a cold glass of milk with it..:crying: that was SO foreign to me pre-banding!!

Hopefully you didn't have your PBJ and milk together. That sounds like drinking with a meal. I am sure it tastes great, but unless it is on cereal or in cream of wheat, shouldn't you be waiting 45 minutes to drink it?

yes i had the 2 togeter & i drink w/my meals. my dr does not require one to wait a period of time after eating to resume drinking.

i've read enough to know why drs' have "this" rule - it's never been a problem for me; i maintain a certain calorie intake / workout / lost the weight i needed to / don't see my food flushing if it actually sustains me.

i don't advocate it, because it's my drs instructions - maybe not someone elses; but if asked i'm pretty honest that it's never been an issue for me...

      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.
