How did Xmas go?



Recommended Posts

I think my xmas went ok. It was my second day of soft foods. I ate a little of the mock souffle that was served at Breakfast (mixture of milk/bread/cheese/salt/pepper), but not much at all compared to what i normally would have had if i hadnt been banded.

Oh and i ate a cookie.. ok so it was a SOFT cookie, but i know that was bad..

Other than that i managed to eat some oatmeal + Protein Shake and chicken broth.< /p>

How did everyone else do today?

PS I go in for my first doctor's appointment tommorrow for my post-op checkup and hopefully have a new updated weight for my ticker. All my scales in my house are looking very promising in their predictions ;)

I was worried about having to explain why I wasn't eating, and do you know that not a single person noticed! I was so surprised!! Let me say though - I did carry a plate for a few minutes while I fed my son. There were a couple of things that I had that weren't the best choices, but overall I didn't do too bad.

I did great. I was banded on 12/21. I was not hungry until yesterday 12/25. The food smelled great for the first time since last week. But I stayed on course.

But OH a Christmas Cookie would have been nice!

Hi all,

I think I did good, I overdid it a little. food tasted sooooo good yesterday. I stuck to the soft stuff, except for carrots, I ate a few raw carrots, I just chewed the heck out of them.

One bite of my nephews cookie. That was it. So no sweets for me.

I did fine . . . except broke off a piece of my FAVORITE sugar cookie . . . and only ate a tiny piece of what I broke off because it tasted like sawdust to me . . . so . . . I wasn't tempted any further . . . which is a GOOD thing. I had to pass on the prime rib I cooked . . .but I poached myself a piece of salmon in chicken stalk . . . which tasted like heaven! I get my first fill one week from today . . . so I'm looking forward to that!

I did very good, but I have told everyone, it is kind of cool all my friends and family and co-workers now I have had it done so they are always asking how I am doing. For xmas I had a very small of sweet pot. and mashed pot. and even smaller amout of my favorite broccoli cassarole minus the chunks.I wasn't even tempted.

      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!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
