Flame Free Friday Confessions!



Recommended Posts

In order to break my stall I am going extremely low on calories. Sometimes only 200-300 a day. Totally not healthy and I can't keep doing this, but something got to give.

I cook for myself and my family, 2 different meals, and I always taste the meal for my family. Most of the time I am trying to check if its too salty, I can't seem to cook without tasting. This week I made some Pasta salad for the family and I had 2 table spoons >.<, and everytime Id open the fridge I would get 1 piece of Pasta.< /p>

I also drink a few sips with my meal, I am afraid that I might have swallowed without chewing well enough and that the food will get stuck in my tummy, especially when I eat chicken or pork.

Actually, increasing your calories might work a little better. Seems contrary, but it's true.

That's not a flame is it?

I'm really bad about "washing things down" if I have a bad taste in my mouth after a meal. Yesterday I had tuna salad and was a little too aggressive with some Water. I had my first "slime" experience in my car in the Sam's Club parking lot. GROSS!!

lol this just made me giggle..... I ALWAYS eat and drink at the same time. Boo!

My doctor told me that drinking while eating really isn't a big deal once you are past the healing stage of the first few weeks & back on solid foods.

My guilty pleasure pleasure is a large double/double french vanilla iced coffee from Tim Hortons every AM (but it takes my most of the morning to get ot down).

I've tried pizza (something I loved pre sleeve) & absolutely hate it now.

kiss the day goodbye and do better tomorrow !

I don't drink with my "meals" (it's hard to call it that yet) but I don't wait an entire 30 minutes before I do drink. I started eating mushies a week before I was supposed to. I'm going to start eating chewables probably 2 weeks before I'm supposed to. I despise all Protein supplements and so I am trying real hard to get my Protein from food. I am getting about 60 grams a day. Maybe I should start drinking milk instead of Water.

I ate too much cheese and managed to bind myself up.

I too think I am the only one in the world that the sleeve won't work on.

There. I feel better. Oh, and I eat a couple of ritz crackers a day too !

I take little samples from my room mate's take-out from time to time. He orders so much food every day it's annoying. Mostly junk but the stuff I used to eat a lot. Luckily, my sleeve will only allow me a taste ;-).

Here's my dirty little confession: I mooched meat & a tiny bit of cheese off my kids pizza tonight...and I'm 11 days post-op! And my Protein bullets started making me gag, so I ditched it for 2 days until I could go shopping for some shakes, now that I can tolerate cold liquids. I'm craving a mixed drink--and I stopped drinking 6 years ago--whodathunkit???

I ate a piece of KFC popcorn chicken, a bite of Mac and cheese, and a bite of mashed potatoes and gravy!

And it was sooooooooo good! I have never salivated so much in my entire life.

      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!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
