Once a cheater always a cheater. Two days post, I couldn't take the broth anymore, so I went to Sonic and ordered a Jr. Cheeseburger with mustard, ketchup and onions. I chewed each bite about 20 times and spit it all back into the bag. Pretty nasty, but the taste, woooo weee. I felt like a fat kid in a candy shop. Awesome. But to actually eat, 5 days out, went to this great seafood place to Celebrate a major event in our family and had oysters on a half shell. Went down smooth of course and sat well. That was the same fat kid in the candy shop, but actually eating the candy.

So I just bought a can of the Gerber Graduates cheese puffs...Oh My!!

Feta freaking CHEESE! Week 1 post op!

lol I would be the happiest person on the face of the planet if I could eat chocolate and not gain weight. I probably won't try my luck until next Valentine's Day though. I used to wait until the day after and stock up on Whitmans.

I ate Smart Puffs one night on my pre-surgery diet and then my next memorable cheat was at about 3 months when I ate chocolate, unapologetically, the entire Christmas season of 2013. January 1 I was right back on the wagon, but yes, I was a chocolate pig for about three weeks when I really should not have been. Oh..and I did it again this Christmas, lol. I didn't gain weight either time and I kept it to only the holidays, so am I looking forward to Christmas 2015? Oh yes I am, t-minus six months until I am going to enjoy chocolate cake, Cookies, ice cream, and candy. Until then though, I will sit here and eat my turkey roll-up.

Squirt cheese is a life saver for me. Just a tiny squirt and it takes care of the salty taste I miss!!!

Potato chips. I was in my puree phase, and my boyfriend left his bag of chips in the kitchen. They were talking to me and I listened. I only had a small handful, and I let them get all mushy in my mouth, and they tasted sooooo good. However, Miss Tummy punished me for hours. I learned my lesson.

I am a week and a half out from surgery, and I had my first official full-fledged cheat today. I ate a slice and a half of avacado. I'm not supposed to even be trying vegetables for about another two weeks, but it just looked so good.
So, my lovely ladies and handsome gents, tell me about the first time you fell off the horse? What did you eat? How far out were you? Was it hard to get back on track? Story sharing time.

@@LipstickLady Are you suggesting that I shouldn't enjoy a nice cocktail on the flight home from the hospital?
Perhaps a vodka enema would be safer.

Confession time: I am 2.5 weeks post op, and had a Margarita at 2 wks and IT WAS SOO GOOD!! ????. It didn't affect me any differently either.

Sorry guys im 7 weeks out and i drunk some non carbonated Moscato and im fine im sooo freaking tipsy but ok and i only had 2oz lol

3 weeks post op (sleeve) and down 32lbs.

I went to the beach at 5 weeks & got in Ocean. No problem. I was healed over

3 weeks post op (sleeve) and down 32lbs.

My first week was like going through boot camp (hell week) all over again. I'm not being a smart butt when I say this, but I actually watched the travel channel and was watching Andrew Zimmer all week. I was seeing all the weird foods and other foods he was eating. It actually helped me to not want to eat. As weird as that sounds, it worked for me. I'm retired, so being at home with nothing do really put that burden on me. If you are in Christ, pray. If you not, nows a good time to just ask for some prayer and mercy to overcome a few more days buddy. Good luck.
