May Marchies May



Recommended Posts

I definitely need some support. I've been banded on May13th. So far I've lost 13 pounds in 7 days. Starting tommorrow, i can eat mushy foods. I still have those "big girl cravings". I suck on puffed cheese doodles and it goes down with no problem. I eat italian ices. I love it. I haven't thrown up yet. I've been eating the italian ice and cheese doodles for Breakfast while i was on leave from work. I also drink muscle milk and powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury. I've also had sugar free Jello. The doctor says that i'm still losing weight. I go to the gym 2 times a week every week.

Does anyone get those loud growls in their stomach ?(almost embarassing in public) I did not know whether it was hunger pains or just gas.

Maybe someone can help me, I went back to work on Monday, 5/26. In the morning,( at 6:00am) I have a Atkins shake (i only drink half). When i get to work (at 9:00am) I get a small bowl of grits and i drink the other half of my shake and i'm full . (could not take the italian ice and cheese doodles to my office job, lol) I go to lunch at 2:00pm. I get so bored at work so i think about food. I try to drink my muscle in the mid day but it only holds me for an hour.

Can anyone suggests any foods that i can eat that will really hold me? I really want to suceed at this but i know i need help

I'm not really that computer literate and i'm looking for lap band friends that has been through what i;m going through now. My email address is: oldschool1026@yahoo.com Thanks:thumbup::crying::thumbup:

      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.
