2 weeks in and already blew it.



Recommended Posts

I'm pre op. I have my consultation scheduled in 2 weeks. I've been on a diet for 2 weeks since attending the seminar trying to watch portions and count calories replacing meals with Protein shakes.

Well I've been sick since Tuesday with the stomach flu and colitis. I haven't really eaten since Monday

I was feeling better today and had cottage cheese and sliced peaches, an orange for morning snack.

popcorn chicken with ranch for lunch.

And as a snack..... 1 handful of bunchacrunch. They were calling to me. The milk also called to me too. That together was almost 500 calories.

Barely 2 weeks in. This worries me.

You are still pre-op and trying to learn the right eating behaviors. You also know where you slipped up and how many calories it cost you. I'm sure before now, you would have eaten the same thing and not thought twice about it??!! I wouldn't say that is "blowing it". Don't let a slip up get you down! Instead, remember it and try not to give in again. You can do this, believe in yourself!

Get rid of all the junk in your house. Keep good options with you at all times, high quality Protein bars, nut packets, etc.

And don't let it get you down, just start fresh.

LOL! Yep, that about sums it up! When 10:00 rolls around, drink a bottle of Water and GO TO BED! The longer you stay up, the more temptation will sneak up on you.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
