"Thinking Food"

I have my thinking cap on now watch out. (hehehe). Do we have a place on the Delaware site such as "What did you eat today" from the posties? This would be very helpful to the pre-op groupies. I realize each individual is different as to what he/she may be able to digest after WLS. I know this sounds crazy but I am concerned about the "foods" I love ie; pasta, rice, breads, red meats (ALL THE WRONG) things I know. Sugar doesn't really bother me much...that's a plus. I am just really trying to think this WLS through mentally. Please Help me Shay a/k/a Snuggles

Shay- Hi, I am also pre-op and think this is a wonderful idea! I am stalked by the same food demons you are (rice, bread, pasta, and potatoes), and like you, sugar is not an issue for me. If you "posties" wouldn't mind doing this, I think it would be an excellent addition to the already outstanding site! Great idea Shay! Hugs Michelle

Hi Snuggles, I too am hoping someone will do that. I suggested doing it on the MSN board and each person starting their own message and then posting replies to it for each new day. That way the posts will get bumped up and be kept current and easy to find ( here they get lost and don't bump up with each new reply ) It would be good to give us all ideas of not only what to expect but ways to maybe hold off boredom in the beginning.

Food and I are having issues now. Since I've decided to do the WLS you'd think my body is trying eat everything in sight. I've gained four pounds in a week! ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHH! Maybe if I do the Atkins drinks for breakfast and lunch and eat a normal dinner . . . "eyes" This surgery isn't coming soon enough! Diane C

I've seen this on the main boards - maybe just everyday some should make a post - what did you eat today? Or maybe it should be yesterday so if someone is posting in the morning they can report a full day? I'll make a post for today to get the ball rolling but anyone can do it in the future.
