Diet "cheating" Question



Recommended Posts

Way to hang in there! I heard someone say that a craving is only supposed to last 20 minutes. If you can get past that then you are mostly in the clear!

Bah, the only thing good at Sonic anyway are the strawberry limeades and cheddar bites. ;) Esp since they did away with the cheddar peppers. You didn't miss anything, and now your superego can give itself two big thumbs up.

I miss me some cherry limeaid. I gave up soda months ago and that had to go too :(

omg Melissa, I had to fight with myself for three days pre-op not to go to Sonic..I soo wanted a chili cheeseburger from there, but I somehow resisted and was thankful because I didn't want to go into surgery with the usual diet mentality I've always had, which was pig out today, diet tomorrow. Good for you for resisting!

besides what others said, if you eat crappy food now after eating well, your body will probably revolt & you'll end up in the bathroom all afternoon!! I've stuck to having more SF popsicles or SF Jell-O when I've craved stuff. It's not exactly the same, but gives me something other than liquid and it's okay by my doctor's guidelines. I'm NOT looking forward to tomorrow since I have to just to all Clear Liquids all day tomorrow since it's the day before surgery! So much for Mother's Day. I guess I'll just have to cherish the non-food gifts!!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
