So I am almost 8 weeks post op and have been doing great! I’ve lost 36 pounds and I exercise at least 6 days a week and eat mostly Protein and try to eat less than 30 carbs a day. But today has been rough. All I want is Cereal. Like fruity pebbles cereal. And I’ve been hungry today like no other!!!!! And because of all this I feel big and like I’m sabotaging my hard work! I would even eat the fruity pebbles in almond milk if it would help!
I guess I am just looking for reassurance from my sleeve family that I’m just have one of those days and it too shall pass 😔

I heard a rumor that GNC has a Protein Powder that tastes like Fruity Peebles, either one of the Ghost brand blends or another proprietary brand,it was even a sample size! I saw it when I was there last chatting with the rep at the counter.

My point is find a way to make this work and don't eat that evil @$$ cereal.

Hope this helps!

Gomum I think some of it has to do with Aunt Flo on her way. Today is a new day though and I’m starting over!
Greentealael I will look into that! Thank you!

Oh Chugging🚝 right along. Tomorrow I start my prediet for,my September 5th RnY, we will find out if the statement " What does not kill me can only strengthen me: holds any credence. But I do want a smooth surgery that helps Ser me on my way toward a better life. It has to be an improvement from sitting obese and in pain , waiting daily for the Death Angel to claim me as his Own. That is a SAD way to have to exist and now I have hope that no longer will be my fate. So some tears💦so n e sorrow but there will be 🌞Sunlight ahead!

I had a day like that on Saturday. There were just a lot of personal issues that were happening, and I wanted food! I did eat more carbs than normal on that day. I was with my sister and her family, and we ordered Mexican. I got chicken with rice and queso. I ate mostly chicken and just a bite or two of rice, but then I came back and ate more later and ate the rest of my chicken with more rice. I also had a couple pieces of chocolate. But, hey, I tracked every bite, and I still lost 4 pounds this week. You're not always going to be perfect, and yes, it will pass!

      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!!
