Day 6 Of Pre-Op Diet... Hubby Is About To Choke On His Cheeseburger!



Recommended Posts

Today is my 6th day of my liquid pre-op diet and so far the hardest! I'm a grumpy biaotch as is but 5 days without food.... Lord help my poor family! I've done really well up to this point but today I was climbing the walls. It got so bad that I was licking the seasoning off of my son's Chili cheese Fritos! And then to top it all off my husband just walked in with a Whataburger Cheeseburger and Whatasized Fries. He better run because I'm about to shove that cheeseburger down his throat if I don't eat it first!

In all seriousness, today was very though for me. I got through it with the grace of God Almighty... and chicken broth. My surgery is set for Monday morning and I am looking so forward to breaking this food addiction. My husband thought I was asleep and that is the only reason he brought that burger home. LOL!

Oouchie! 3 days post, and I have to say that day 6-8 were the hardest on my pre op diet! Now Im fighting to drink cup of water! Its amazing how fast the change happens, but once it happens you will find ourself going from fighting to not, to fighting to drink and Water of all things! I just watched my friend eat eggs and bacon, and it didn't even phase me.

Just think, here soon he'll walk in with that cheeseburger and all you'll be thinking is about how many empty carbs are in the bun & fries. Saying to yourself "I can't believe he's actually gonna put that garbage in his body".

It's an amazing transformation. You'll never look at food the same way again.

Around day 7 was my breaking point. I could no longer cook for my family or sit with them while they ate. I knew I would feel differently after surgery, which is why I felt like the whole pre-op diet was just a sick joke designed just to torture me. Hang in there, and tell hubby to eat his burger in the car next time! You're in the home stretch! You CAN DO THIS!!

I said no throw it out and was proud of myself...living in the moment only and taking it one day at a time....I got 8 more days of the pre-op liquids!!!!!!

Oh Wow! What I would do for that piece of sausage right now! I love McDonald's breakfast but then again I love every breakfast! Today is my last day of Pre Op. Can't wait to be part of that Post Op diet! It is hard to get my head around the thought that I will actually not want food considering it's my first and last thought of every day. I am so pumped for tomorrows surgery!

Day 7 of full liquids and tomorrow starts clear so I understand my husband ate pepperoni pizza on front of me and I figured I could legitimately claim insanity when I killed him. I keep repeating just keep swimming. Good luck on your surgery.

I loved Whataburger and probably would have stalked my poor family had they walked in the house with that during Preop. But if you noticed I use the past tense in my love for them. I had some hardcore drive through fast food love and I just don't feel that way anymore. I've even taken apart the lovey little cheeseburger and had just the patty and cheese (I'm 2 mths post op). It truly was not good to me anymore and frankly made me a little nauseous.

Ditto Wolfgirl and OTR. It's hard to believe Preop, but it's soooo true!!!!

I think I miss my personal memories of certain foods, but when they're in front of me now, they're a "turn off". For my future success, I hope it stays that way.

I am a foodie at heart and am so happy to be preparing good guality nutritious foods for my self and family. They are very happy about it too! It also means that I have fabulous little lunches, Snacks and quick dinners "for days". I may need another freezer soon!

      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
