Last must-have food before your pre-op diet
Heather Meyer replied to Rdytolose's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Before i started my pre op diet...i just had to have beer battered fish and chips with lots of salt and vinegar. I was certain that after being sleeved, i may never eat beer battered fish and fries...also...poutine...a big bowl of it..cause im convinced it will be a loooooooooooooooooong time until i ever taste that again. However...now that i have started my pre op diet..i choose not to think about those foods because i know i can get into the state of mind that says: "you may never have that again so why not have it one last time" Truth is: I will probably have it one day..but right now its time to think about healing my body from the years of abuse that i have put it through from not thinking about health of my body and mind. I dont want to be the next bowel cancer patient. I dont want to be the next type 2 diabetic. Its time to start living -
dill pickles okay pre op cheat?
Heather Meyer posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
So i am on this low carb high Protein liquid 3 week pre op protein diet and ive hit the hardest day ever..like.. day 3.5 For some reason its always the hardest days on day 3 and 4 of any low carb diet i have ever done... so i couldnt take it anymore. I needed to chew somthing! So i chose a dill pickle. Do you think its alright to have a dill pickle or two.. i knew if i didnt eat a dill pickle..then it would be somthing i really really really should not eat...like somthing high fat high carb... Im just trying to get through the next two days and then i know i will be okay. -
dill pickles okay pre op cheat?
Heather Meyer replied to Heather Meyer's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks everyone for the words of advice-kick in the pants or not..harsh or not...whatever..that doesnt matter to me.. What matters is that i found support in a small group of people who were willing to honestly weigh in on a question...that helps. I did go ahead and have a pickle..did i like it? Not really...Did it help to take a bite and chew? YEP. Did i feel guilty knowing it was still a cheat regardless..Yep. Will i do it again? No..is the answer i want to give but i cant make a promise because im human and its hard being 100 percent.. BUT ... next time i will attempt to find a different coping method when i feel very tempted. Thanks for your help AND ditto to what Lauren said... chewing and spitting out food is begging for an eating disorder..trust me..i have a lot of experience with eating disorders..it explains half the reason why i am fat today. -

September Sleevers...! Come on in and chat!
Heather Meyer replied to birdmadgirl's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I found something that helps...I make an 8oz cup of low sodium chicken broth or veggie broth and i add a scoop of beneprotein unflavoured whey protein isolate...gives me 6 grams protein in 120mls of liquid.. It mixes up soooo nice that my broth still looks like broth and i cant even taste the whey at all... If your using syntrax...try there medical unflavoured whey protein in some broth for a snack between shakes...add some herbs or spices...man oh man...gives me somthing dinner like and tastes salty versus sweet all the time. -
