Shamrocks Friday Weight In.



Recommended Posts

Sweets are hard. I don't buy them for myself, but at work, which is sometimes very physically demanding, several people keep public stockpiles of mini chocolate bars and Hershey's Kisses and whatnot. I'm fine if I avoid them, but if I have one, then I just keep going back and raiding the store.

There are some foods - mostly small, bite-sized things, like small chocolates, potato chips, french fries - which are like that, what the English call "more-ish" (you have some, and immediately want more). If potato chips come with my sandwich, I'll allow myself one or two, then crush the bag so I won't be tempted. With french fries, I'll have one or two, then oversalt the rest, or douse them with Tabasco sauce or something, anything to reduce their appeal.

But I find these stores of chocolate very hard to resist. Sometimes I can hear them calling to me from down the hall...

I too have had an issue with sweets. Since getting back on track a few weeks ago I started buying sugar free sweets again. Russell Stover makes small bags of Sugar Free Chocolates that taste like the real thing, no after taste or fake sugar taste. They have all kinds to choose from. I have a hard time eating 1 so I keep them in the freezer. I know that I crave sweets after supper, so while I'm preparing supper I take 1 or 2 out of the freezer to thaw for my sweet tooth after I eat. They are IMPOSSIBLE to eat frozen so I only eat the 2 and am satisfied, and also know that if I want more, too bad, they're frozen. I also keep them at work in the staff freezer:)

Also I found sugar free tapioca cups. I put a little cool whip free on top, and yum! It's enough for me. Also I do the same with SF jell cups.

Just a few ideas, hope it helps someone out...:tt2:

Down 2lbs this week and it wasn't the easy way. Too much regurgitation. But I'll take it any way it comes. But I will see the doctor next week to discuss too much resteriction. It's over a year after my surgery and I'm still trying to get to that sweet spot.

Only down one, but I'll take it. I will be on vacation for the next 2 Fridays.. I hope I can come back and post a few more lbs down?? I'm at 200 again, 8lbs to go to be back at my "pre-quitting smoking" weight.. It will feel good to be in the 100's again for sure!!

      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.
