My confession is I went from being a volume eater to a grazer... I need to stop eating small amounts all day and just have meals!

I hear ya! We had our departmental holiday potluck today. There was a sick amount of food. I did OK until around 2pm and then the grazing began. Lawd.

One good thing - I'm not much of a cook. I made chess squares for the potluck and there was only one left! :huh2:

Confession . . . I have been soooo thirsty but not drinking enough Water, so there is milk, orange juice, coffee, tea, grape juice, etc, etc, etc. I haven't been slacking on liquid calories, thats for sure!!!!

I probably drank a carafe of cranberry juice today but it was SO good!!!

Is cranberry juice as bad as say apple or other sweet juices? Not that I like it that much, but was just wondering.

only if you add vodka too it :huh2:

i've been on a OJ kick myself & i also do NOT get in near enough Water.

All juice is bad - liquid calories full of sugar. If you're craving fruit, then it's better to eat the fruit whole and at least get some Fiber out of it.

My DH has been researching cars and is shopping for one and is totally disgusted with me because I'm so not interested. It's going to be his car, so what do I care? Anyway, you'd think he'd be grateful that I told him to get whatever he wants. But noooooooooo, he's pissed because I'm disinterested.

      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.
