The hardest thing that I have given up is pasta! I love pasta! Pasta everything...but, my band doesn't like it! It has been a blessing in disguise for me though. My body hates sugar/carbs and Pasta is full of both. Sooooo, while I miss it, I am much better off without it! ;)

I'm on the soft solid stage 2.5 post-op and right now all I want is a BK Original chicken Sandwich. It's such a silly thing to crave, but it's constantly on my mind. Thank goodness I really don't crave sweets; I'm all about salt. My binge food was triscuits with sliced cheddar. Weird, huh? I don't crave fries or burgers.. just that stupid chicken sandwich.

Diet coke is by far the hardest thing I have had to do with out. I miss it more than I can express. Its a bit unsettling how much! LOL

Pasta, but I don't exactly miss it, and with the amount of exercising I'm doing, it won't hurt to have it every once in awhile. I could also say pizza, but I just make my own pizza that is healthier. I pretty much eat what I did before, just healthier portions/types. (ie. brown rice over white rice and not a bowl full of it)

I don't know if there's anything that's been hard to give up. I do however have cravings for the breadsticks from pizza hut both the garlic ones and the cinnamon.

I havent really had hard time giving anything up. I started slowly changing my eating habits about a year ago. And by six months ago I was eating like a dietians dream, but I was still heavy enough to need the help. My problem is bad food. Its eating too much. I went from eating a whole lb of steak to eat a whole lb of shrimp. Way better for you, but not very good for loosing weight. I lost a good amount of weight before surgery other wise Im not sure my surgeon would have let me even have the lapband. Im still just a little over a week ago from surgery so Im sure I will want something sooner or later that isnt good for me. Thats why I got the lapband to begin with. I needed to restriction to keep me on the right path.

WOW... that's a loaded question. pizza, Pasta, Hambugers and home made baked goods! But oddly, just now when I thought about it, I really don't miss any of it. I have fleeting moments but they pass. I will honestly say I have found healthier versions of most of these things or substitutes. (well, not sure it substitues is the right termanology) The other day tho... I really wanted a good pizza, and those skinny little cardboard substitutions just don't cut it!

I have gone without a double cheeseburger from mc donalads for a little over a year now. I told myself i would make it a year and now I have made up my mind that I will go the rest of my life without one. Miss it maybe a little but not worth it at all.

I don't really miss soda but I did have an odd experience the other day. I was at Walmart late like 10:OO. So it was pretty quiet. Someone the next register over opened the soda refrig. The sound of the door opening and the pulling of the rubber gasket gave me the worse Diet Coke craving. Sooo weird. Goes to show that we really do have sounds that trigger us to eat and drink!

I miss never being able to have a sandwich... Subway, Peanut Butter and jelly, a club. I just miss them but I know it is totally worth it. That's not to say that sometimes I don't feel sorry for myself, which is just silly.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
