The entire time I was off from work after me procedure all I did was watch food network, cooking channel, and man vs food :)

My hubby thought I lost my mind watching food I could not eat

My two older boys, ages 5 and 7 will scream out "it's Bobby Flay!" or "it's Freitag!" if they see his or her picture on a magazine at the store. It's so funny, because they don't know any TV or movie stars. Just famous chefs.

Some call it food porn, but I still like to cook, even of I can't eat it for a while. Can't wait to be able to be satisfied with just a taste of something.

A good friend of mine was on Sugar Dome. I watch Triple D and Chopped. Heck I'm a chef, so if working around food doesn't bother me, watching it sure won't

All I watch is food channels, my husband thinks I'm obssessed! At the beggining of my journey it helped with the cravings.

Ha ha

I'm the same... I really enjoy watching all food shows. I'm a vegetarian but still enjoy the meat cooking too. I get tempted for a short bit and then it passes. But I do want to get to 6 months to know how different it'll be. I'm only 6 weeks

I watch as well...why??? Because I will have to cook more. I don't have to add all the butter and flour and extra calories, but I can use some of the tips to make healthy meals.

food Porn...pishaw!! Not even. I look for ways that will be helpful to me and that I can adapt for my 'Reset' lifestyle.

Can't wait to buy a stovetop smoker. Where did I get the idea...Food Network. Can't wait to try new sauce on my Salmon, Tilapia and Shrimp...where did I get the idea??? You got it....and lastly, I cannot wait until I try my smoked salmon burger. All compliments of me watching something that I watched pre surgery.

Have fun, create new ideas OR just have fun watching!

I watched for a week straight right after surgery, even googled restaurant menus. I definitely mourned food for a few days post op but then I got over it as I started purees and more normal food. Now I am loving the will power my sleeve and my modest weight lose are giving me. I still love looking at food porn occasionally. It is food porn for me because I don't cook!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!

      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!!
