Wow! I am craving very specific food with great detail. (i.e: Olive & Canadian Bacon Calzone from Lampost; Eggs Benedict from the Hyatt; etc...).

However, I am still on a liquid diet.

I was thinking that this is psychological.

Perhaps "Taste Memories" are meshing with cravings?

Anyway, my plan is to find super yummy substitutions that are healthier.

Had to attend a social event this weekend though I am less than 2 weeks out. I couldn't believe how food centric socializing is and I really had to fake it. Despite being super careful, I ended up indulging ...1/2 an asiago bagel with cream cheese, nacho bar, and a small piece of chocolate cake. Being around food was hard and I craved just a few bites..before I knew it I was eating considerably more than id have liked to.

I'm on pre op diet, 2 days left, damn it feels good to say that! My pre op started pretty bad, cravings, mind telling me things would taste amazing. I kept looking back on my life. Did I really enjoy that? Did I need that? Did I NEED that? Nope. Not at all. Determination is where it's at, get your mind in the right spot. Remember everything that's hard right now, and then imagine a world you live in where things aren't so complicated. America has become such a foody type nation, everything we do revolves around food, so much that it's killing our children and loved ones. I got tired of living to eat instead of eating to live.

I was on day three yesterday of my pre-op diet. My dad TOTALLY pissede off. I had been really wanting Texas Cheese Fries from Cheedar's and Movie Popcorn one last time. I seize the opportunity. Before I went, I have a fajita salad with pico de gallo. I was basically full at tht point. I had two bites of Tx Cheese fries, a couple of handfuls of popcorn, and I was done with it. This morning, I woke up and I'm back on track. Did I do the right thing? NO. But, what's done is done. I'm eating my premier chocolate protein shake this morning and eating my jello. The end LOL
