I would suggest you Google Bariatric Advantage. If you go to their website they will send you a sample pack, then you can choose the flavor you like best.

I'm making myself do liquids only today. I went a little over board yesterday and can't deal with the guilt. They bought us pizza yesterday at work and i ate 2 slices of thin crust veggie. How was it possible? Then when it was dinner time I kept picking at the left overs from the pan even though I was stuffed. I have no idea why I was so out of control. Some one please tell me in not alone?

I know in not but the mind is a powerful thing. I woke up feeling so ashamed.

I knew I had to confess and ask y'all for support.

That is exactly why this is a journey, we are going to make mistakes or have bad days. I would suggest that you not 'punish' yourself with liquids only, but just focus on getting back on track and perhaps fit in a little extra workout or a walk in today. The exercise will help you feel better, and it always leaves me with a sense of pride in what I have done, a positive emotion instead after a negative one.

You are not alone! I have not broke YET. However, I feel like I could easily eat three times what I am currently eating. I worry about the day that I break.

Tomorrow is over, forget it. Today is a new day. Make it a great one!!

I've done it, felt crappy and accomplished for not dumping/gaining at the same time. . . If we always deny ourselves everything, bingeing is easier, and then are we really living? I'm thrilled you went for the thin crust veggie pizza and only had two! So congrats on those choices. Have only liquids if that's what you think is right for you. Or, walk an extra 2 blocks today, eat some raw green leafy food, and drink more Water to flush it out (& don't repeat today!). It's a new adventure but we are still alive and social creatures!

You can't deny yourself everything. You'll go crazy. I still occasionally have pizza or even a cookie. Why? Because if I don't one day I'm going to binge.

But now it's a slice or two of pizza - not half of a pizza. And it's one cookie - not half a dozen.

Has anyone else noticed that when you try to be a good coupon shopper, a lot of the foods are what we SHOULDN'T or CAN'T eat? Very frustrating.

What Calcium supplements is everyone taking. My nut said to take a chewable calcium citrate but I am having a really hard time with the large chalk like pills/wafers.

Anyone find a chewable that isn't so bad. She said gummies are out. :(

      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.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      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!!
