Cheater cheater, pumpkin pie eater



Recommended Posts

Actually it wasnt pumpkin pie (but i WISH I had some pumpkin pie!). Yesterday, day 2 of pre op diet, i broke down and ate 2 slices off kraft cheese. It was wonderful and I dont really feel guilty about it lol. I know I shouldn't be flippant about it but i have 21 days of this to endure!

Super hard to stick with it but def do the best you can. We have all been there. The most important thing I believe is to make sure the last week you don't break down and slip back into solids before surgery. You want to be as healthy as possible def helps with recovery! Good Luck!

When it's time for my surgery, I too need to do three weeks, I'm not gonna judge, I too will most likely slip up, all you can do is pick it back up the second after you slip and resolve to do better. Slip ups are always going to happen - we are only human

Yeah and this is difficult though it feels like it has got a little easier. Emphasis on a little.

I just posted that I had a few little slip ups (small piece of cheese and a small crumb of bread). You have a much more supportive audience than I did! We can do this. No judgment from me!

Hang in there! You can do this! Mine thankfully was only a week so not so bad. If you find that you are having a hard time handling it, you might want to reach out to your nutritionist to request the addition of some lean Protein.

I was not required to do a three week diet, only a two week one. I choose to start early so I could get into the hang of it. I have slipped up a couple times. Nothing crazy, just not on my plan. I do think it is important to follow what our Drs have given us to follow, but as mentioned before, we are human. mistakes will happen! Forgive and move on, try to do better. I will say I have lost about 12 pounds over the last couple weeks ???? since I am seeing the scale move it does make me more motivated!! Good luck!!!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
