I'm a 44 year old mother of 3 wonderful adopted children. I'm also FAT! I'm being banded on 12/5/11. I'm so excited for what life has in store for me and my family!

I think I'm going crazy today!
UGGG! Crazy day! I am SO hungry today, but I want to eat all the WRONG things, so I haven't eaten hardly at all! I want ooey, gooey macaroni and cheese. I know that is a big No-no for bandsters. I want soft, chewy garlic bread with cheese. Another no-no. I want caramel something. I skipped breakfast today because nothing sounded good except for stuff I can't have. Biscuits and gravy sounds awesome, but I know I can't do it, so I just didn't eat. I did do a good lunch, my calories are only at a little over 200 for the day. I'm just in a bad mood and I'm not sure why. I've been doing so good, but today is just nuts! I did the Wii for a while thinking that exercise will improve my mood. NOPE! How does everyone pull themselves out of a wicked funk? I think I could eat the butthole out of skunk today if it was slathered in caramel and chocolate. Ok, not really but, Damn, I'm hungry. I have a fill on Tuesday. It will be my second one. Can I ask for a BIG one because I can't even tell there is anything there! OK, enough ranting I need to take the kiddos out and get some fresh air, maybe that would do some good!

I would eat something you don't want to end up starving and then eat to much too fast. I would try to satisfy some of your craving with something healthy maybe a carmel protein shake. Also make sure you are taking your vitamins...when I crave chocolate I am usually low in magnesium
ReplyDeleteLow in magnesium makes you crave chocolate?? I'll be damned! I'm really bad at taking my vitamins. I will try to be more diligent about taking them! Where do you get your stuff for the protien shakes? Carmel sounds yummy! Thanks for the tips girls!
DeleteI always try and drink at least 20oz of water when I feel like this, then if I still want...
ReplyDeleteI say feed the beast. Don't go crazy, just eat something that sounds good and eat a bandster portion of it. Others out there may disagree with me, but this is how I roll! :)
Chin up! We all have these days! Weekends are the hardest for me! I just think I should be able to eat whatever I want.
Hey there! YOu are doing great!! I saw the post before this one said you were close to the 50 lbs mark. That is so exciting! I'm really happy for you. I can definitely relate to being hungry and craving . I bet it will be a lot better when you get your fill. I didn't have that surgery but my brother did and he's lost 250 lbs with the band . He said it is a bit like a science of getting it to the right restriction but once you do it's great. I definitely have my moods and they take me on some wild rides. I pretty much cannot handle white flour and sugar. They will send me the roof craving. I have to stay under 30 grams of carbs a day and eat nothing with more than 4 grams of sugar. I wish I wasn't like that but it's the only thing that keeps me from eating all the chocolate that exists!! Good luck on your continued journey!
