Recommended Posts

So I'm 4 weeks post op. I'm here at work and went down to the cafeteria cause I left my food at home and had some nachos! about a cup 1/2. OMG! I feel so guity I just have such an addition to junk food. I'm been pretty good otherwise. Tomorrow I'm getting my first fill. I have not been feeling any restriction at all. This is so frustrating. !:thumbup:

It's OK!!! I know the feeling though! I have had nachos and pizza. I'm also 4 weeks post and am hoping to get a fill next week. The good thing is even though I don't have restriction, I am some more self control. I only had one and one half slices of pizza and was able to stop. I wasn't full but I was comfortable! NEVER would have done that before!!! Only look forward, you can't change what you did today but you can change what your going to do tomorrow. Keep on keeping on and let me know how your fill goes! I sure hope I can get one soon, still waiting to see if the surgery center here will take me on since I had my surgery out of state!

Oh, hon, you could have done much worse. My nutritionist told me about one woman who had come back for her first post-op checkup and had written down KFC Original recipe for the day RIGHT AFTER surgery. And I had been feeling guilty about eating fruit ahead of schedule!

You're aware of your bad habits and what you need to do to avoid them. That's a lot more than most can say. Keep trying hard and good luck :thumbup:.

It just because you haven't had your fill yet and don't have the restriction (which is very frustrating). I got my first fill last week and it's a whole different world, when you have some restriction. Don't beat yourself up over it, live and learn, never regret...good luck with your fill tomorrow. It was another new beginning for me and I'm loving it :thumbup:

      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!!
