You were so strong and so right. We aren't dogs and we don't need food or treats as a reward. You deserve a huge pat on the back. And it was just a trail run for post op because these same times are going to come up down the road. And you know you are strong enough. I am so proud of you. Big Big Smile. Big Hugs too.

I know that feeling Im on Optifast 7 days in 3 more weeks to go :( but my boyfriend and I were celebrating out anniversary and we walked all over kenaington market in tdott and he got really hungry so he had to eat. We went to a restaurant and like you felt this strong urge to stick to my diet that ive been working soo hard on. I wish i just walked away but I ordered a vegetable stirfry instead and only ate the green peppers and celeraries (which We can have up to a cup a day) but I actually still feel like I cheated because of the soya and salt Im sure was on it that i cant have, furthermore I had to throw 3/4 of it out so what a waste of money! But for the most part im careful not to put myself in any tempting situations like when we r driving somewhere and my bf had to have a lunch break he offered to sit in the restaurant (mcdonalds) while I made my shake and ate in the car. I find beig away from yummy smells and seeing the food is really helping me through this

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
