Just moaning a bit... I know what needs to be done....With all the crazy running and shopping have not been planning/shopping/eating as I should. On top of it all, the holiday goodies are appearing in the house as others attend parties and such. Been very weak in resistance.

Need a major trip to supermarket to get right things in house and will re motivate this week. Hoping to at least hold steady til fill in January, if not lose a few.

Hope everyone is hanging in there and enjoying the holidays despite the abundance of food forever flowing! LOL

They scare me too. I am flying to South Africa on wed to visit my Mum and Sister for 6 weeks. Mum has probably been baking for weeks filling the freezer with mince pies, welsh cakes and all the other things she makes so well.

HELP!

elcee: Make sure you take a tiny spoon with you. That way, you can taste your mom's wonderful foods w/o going crazy over them. It worked for me at T'giving!

First holidays with band are sucking, I hate all those goodies are slidder foods! I baked all my goodies using the Splenda granulated to help me out some, and in my Cookies subsituted part of the flour with wheat flour. Applesauce for the oil, egg beaters for eggs. Did whatever I could to save the calories and preserve the taste. Not to shabby if I say so myself and I feel a little less guilty for slipping up..:willy_nilly:

      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.
