Pre op diet Day 7 of low glycemic veggies and shakes. Felt so sick to my stomach and hungry today that I caved and had 3 slices of whole wheat bread with my cauliflower... I was doing so well! :(

I don't know what to tell you other than you are human. Pick yourself up, don't beat yourself up and go back to the diet.

I have 3 more days until surgery and my Dr. is not giving a pre-op diet. But I have put myself on one anyways, I cant say I have been 100 % but I can say its better than how I normally eat.

Good luck!!

Don't beat yourself up..just jump back on track. It's definitely not easy. Dust yourself off and try again. Ask yourself how bad you want it. It helps with my temptations.

It happens, just start fresh , have you tried dividing the shakes through the day ? like a half pack 6 times a day instead of three?

Good luck with having the Band. Everyone has a slip now and then and it's over with and move on. I love SF Popsicles. I buy Edy's, I think they taste the best. They have a few more calories but taste really makes a difference. I just had one when I finished with my dinner.< /span>

You publicly owned up, I think that means you probably feel bad enough to stay on course. Good luck, and remember you are not the only one and that doesn't mean you aren't serious and don't want it.

If we all had self control, bands wouldn't have been invented.

It's okay, we all make mistakes...that being said what really helped me is to force myself to drink zero cal beverages all day long to subside the hunger between shakes. My fav is Diet Snapple (10 cals a bottle so that's cal free in my opinion) Good Luck!

I think we all have slips that doesn't mean your bad. Just re-focus and you should be fine. Best of luck to you!

I like drinking Smart Water. When I feel shaky, it makes me feel better.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
