The New Tasha

It's the funniest thing to see this because just in the last few weeks, I've been itching for a taste of soda! I am also down to a size 8/10 from a 22/24. Wonder if there is something about this point in the weight loss?
I don't think I'm ever going to break down and buy a soda any time soon. I'm betting my memory of how good it was will not match how it tastes now. Not to mention knowing that there is really very little natural of anything in them. Empty calories, artificial sweeteners, chemical dyes and colorings. Not even sure if the Water they use is filtered for the bad stuff! I don't think the cringe that goes up my spine thinking of what's in soda will override whatever this craving is...
I would advise you or anyone looking to drink soda, energy drinks, etc. to please consider other options. Most of the time our body is just dehydrated and only needs Water. Is it really worth it? Maybe try adding some fruit juice to a fizzy water, see if that does it?

I am 9 weeks post op and i too have this issue. I cant drink and eat even if i want to. Its hard because i have to drink when i eat but if i do it now i blow like a vulcano if ya know what i mean. its a pain because i love my ice cold Water

I just ate a whole fruit cup!!! Like a mutha-effin Boss!!!!!

I'm on day 5 of liquid diet but the nurse said I could nibble on carrots so I have steamed some here & there but I have ate no other food but I'm sure everyone does cheat a little b/c liquid for 2 weeks pre-op is hard when your use to eating when & what you want... My surgery is next Wed & it's been hard but so far I think I can make it to next week...

Have any one every cheated 4 days before their surgery date?

My date is 9/7/12

Great, have you started your per op liquids diet yet?

Hey we can be buddies too, omg I am just on day 2 and going crazy, I need a good Soup I can buy like yesterday, am so hungry

Don't worry, I have had my mom asked me why i am Doing such a thing, and my response was cause you big which as caused me to be big, I said that to say some people never wants to see others happy, as long as you have someone, whether it's your boyfriend or everyone on this site, you have support, keep your head up and lets start looking forward to a better life, and a better you!

I know the feeling, am only on day 3 of 14, cheated a little, I just have to put my mind over metter, we will do good, I get sleeved on 9/7, we can support one another.

How are you doing since your surgery?

Today was my first day of my Protein Shakes, it was hard, but I did it, I started with muscle milk, 20g of Protein and 3g of sugar, what do you guys think, should I stay with it or change? I also had a Jello sugar free of course.

Thank you, Have you started your liquid diet yet? This is my first day, man I hope I can do it.
