I am doing really good on my pre-op diet. I do not think of food or get hungry until I see a commercial for something I love. I never really noticed how much TV ads can influence us. ????. But I haven't cheated. Staying Strong!!!

Today is day 2 of pre op diet, my surgery is scheduled for December 11th. I haven't cheated either and I'm not really hungry but I just want to eat all the things that I can't have! ???? When is your surgery?

Hi!

I too will have my surgery too. I am a bit nervous about the 2 week pre-op liquid diet. I guess I better read instead of watching TV in the evening!

I had to stop watching the Food Channel and cooking shows to, for a while.

It seems all of the commercials are about food!!

It seems like the whole world revolves around food. Every holiday it's all about food. Treats for kids are always food. it's crazy

What helps us is watching everything a day behind. This way when we watch what is on our DVR we can just skip all commercials. But that often doesn't work. Haha!

Amen! I almost turned it to Diners, Drive-ins & Dives the other day and quickly remembered that was a no-no. ????

I am four weeks RNY post-op. I still enjoy watching my favorite programs on the Food Network. Now when I see the chefs doing a recipe; I am trying to figure out if I could make that a "healthier recipe".

Hi. I didn't do too good on days 1 and 2 of pre op liquid diet. Days 3,4,5,,6 were a breeze.. Day 7 and 8 were murder.

I'm on day 14.

And it's EXACTLY the same for me.

Unnerving but also instructive of what my 'hunger' is made of....so much WANT, not so much NEED.
