What did YOU eat today?



Recommended Posts

Great idea Blessed...

Today I'm NOT eating. Today I start the liquids

Day 3: Mushies/pureed

Day 4: Soft foods

Day 5: Solids

So it's a compacted post op regimen. I almost finished one a few months ago.. got through day two and fell off. I know I can do it, and now especially since I feel more determined.

I won't exercise through today and tomorrow. My body needs rest right now, and I will likely feel a bit weak too.

Okay so its on! Mmmm... Isopure

:wink2:

tapshoes I hear ya! Yesterday was replacement fill for the 3ml I had taken out just before Christmas for my big stuck episode. Since then I have been able to eat anything in any quantity!

Today I am on a new road. Since being able to eat anything and cheating for the most part of three or four months I am going to get myself right again.

Today I ate and will eat the usual sort of breaky and lunch with a different dinner:

B: Porridge with banana

L: Cottage cheese with fruit (today it is mixed berries)

D: Grilled fish with salad.

With this refiill I already feel better. I have restriction again and I am not hungry and looking for something to put in my mouth every minute.

I have to work on the physiological side of my eating behaviour now.

Well, I'm definitely not posting what I ate yesterday but let's see if shame can help me eat better today so I can post. Maybe this is just what I need to get my eating back in line and the scale moving down at a nice pace. Thanks.

Yesterday was fill day, so it was a Protein shake in the morning, and then one lst night before I went to bed. Today is Protein Shake for Breakfast - which I couldn't drink until 4 hours later....that's a first! lunch and supper will be creamed Soups and yogurt.

This is the first time that after a fill, I have not been able to have my breakfast within 30 minutes of getting up in the morning. I am used to starting my day with coffee, then having my breakfast within a half hour before I head to the Y. Today, no such luck...felt kinda weak at the Y but worked through it.

Okay, I'm gonna eat today. Later though, and you know what? I'm gonna enjoy it. I know my stomach has shrunk because I'm feeling full on just liquids.< /strong>

My pants feel like they want to fall off but the scale is still stuck at 243. Well, that's okay. Like I just mentioned in another thread, if it takes me five years to get to goal I'm okay with that. I'll get there.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
