Comment on Knowing Weight Loss Pitfalls Will Help With Diets That Work Fast! by Blake Handley

These are all really ideas. I would like to add another and that is to write down and journal about what you are eating. By keeping track of your meals and how you felt when you were eating them you can identify your eating triggers. It is simple to do by using an ‘on-line web based system’ or just a favourite note book.

Exactly. If they look at the health costs of obesity and everything that costs them as we have many health problems being obese then they would be so much better off to shell out money for these surgeries or other treatments instead of having to shell out money for the 100′s of health problems that obese people face. lol. Okay I am done ranting…I think…stay tuned! haha lol.

Head Hunger is a very funny thing , the first week of my liquid diet I was having liquid morning and noon and normal supper, I never had any problem all day but as soon as I eat then all I can think about is food, one head game after another till bed time. and now that I am all Liquid, no craving. We are an amazing critter.

You know how the government works……they would rather pay A LOT later than being proactive. Maybe they are just hoping we die instead of having to invest money into health prevention.

Wishing you luck with your surgery.. which wls option are you getting? when is your surgery booked for now?
Im having the lap band surgery done on Wednesday next week (november 16th), i am really nervous,, i have been on a pre-op diet for the last week and a half and up until he day of surgery, my pre-op diet is “meditrim” , its 2 high protien low carb shakes/day and 1 protein bar.. the first couple days were horrible trying to get used to the taste it made me gag, and i was so hungry, im allowed up to 2 cups of vegetables/day, i did that for 4 days but now im back down to just the shakes/bar and the last 2-3 days i havent had much of an appetite and have only had 2 supplements/day and each are only around 250 calories…. once your body gets used to not having any carbs anymore its not as hungry , at least for me anyways, and i actually feel more energized, not so bogged down and im only consuming 500-750 calories/day right now..
I keep thinking about the surgery and food all the time too… i think that is normal when you’re making a major life change like this.. when i knew that my pre-op diet date was coming up i ate a few things over a few days i knew id miss but was careful not to over-indulge because i knew that would just be more weight to work off afterwords. Just today i came home from work and all i could think about is how much im going to miss the food i wont be able to eat anymore but i know the benefits in the long run will be for the better, hopefully eliminate my high blood pressure problems and prevent further consequences that could happen from being so overweight.

Hoping everything goes well for you… remember you’re not alone in this journey.
