Ok, so I had been really good about snacking and not overdoing it on any foods. That is until this past week. I've been eating Peanut Butter by the spoonfuls and adding some chocolate chips ( I never eat chocolate!) on top. I am throwing the PB and the chocolate chips away NOW and stopping this naughtiness. I don't know what happened. I think I got upset about the debacle of my second fill and things just did a downward spiral from there. No excuse, so I'm cleaning up my act! Thought that putting it in writing will make me stick to it!

I have a sweet tooth as well! I simply can not bring it in the house or I will eat it, I have no self control. :( I will "talk myself into it, saying to myself, well you have been doing so well, you deserve it, or look at all the fat free sugar free you eat, this isnt a big deal, but I have to tell myself I am only fooling myself. I am new to the band BUT still very tempted rules or not lol

However to fill my sweet tooth (sounds gross I know but its good) I take one spoonfull of peanutbutter and 1/4 cup of cottage cheese, I melt the Peanut Butter and then ass the cottage cheese mix it up and its soooo good. Hang in there one day at a time, its a battle you will win!

You know what snorkel? You hit a little speedbump. The refreshing thing reading your post is when you wrote this:

"No excuse, so I'm cleaning up my act!"

I read so many posts where people are looking for excuses for doing what they do. It's nice to see that you hit a bit of a bump (like we all do, BTW), but recognized it for what it was, and are now determined to let it go. Good for you. I think you have a great attitude and will meet all your goal. Keep at it, snorkel. It ain't easy, but it is worth it. You can do it.

      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.
