It is very hard. Everyone that has been through can attest to that. Just try to stay busy and keep only sugar free foods and vegetables in the house. I know with my kids around, the temptation to have junk was too great, so the extra healthy stuff helped. I am having to modify the household diet to get everyone to make better choices. If your going to cheat, at least cheat with something you can have. Try to stay busy and sip sip sip that Water. You CAN do this. Remind yourself of your goal every time you put something in your mouth. Don't beat yourself up if you have a slip. It is hard to break a cycle you have been in your whole life. You did not get the size you are in one day. It'll take some doing, but you got this.

I am on day 5. I feel normal for the first time since I started. I would still love a piece of real food. I put some tabasco in the Tomato Soup and that helped. I am the family cook, so I thought nothing of going to the grocery store for the family today. It was a bad idea.

That's the hardest for me, too. Cooking for them is killing me too. I wonder licking a piece of ham is cheating? LOL

This diet is brutal, but it is the first time I ever lost 12lbs in 5 days. I guess it works.

Ladies! I was in your shows less that 3 weeks ago and let me tell you! I was miserable!!! I even considered cancelling because the pre-op was so dang hard. I survived by adding Mio to my Water and eating SF Jello to trick my brain into thinking I was eating. I even froze it to have "ice cream". No one said this would be easy and how dare the nay-sayers say we took the easy way out! Be proud and be good! It will pay off!!!

I have not tried the frozen SF Jello but my octors office told me today no jello. I was like What??? I can have one small meal a day (turkey, chicken,or fish and a veggie).

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
