I WANT TO EAT!!!!

Am I the only one that just once in awhile wants to go to the buffet and pig out like I use to? I miss the Chinese Buffet the most. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad if I didn't have so much trouble eating and drinking. I guess I should be thankful the the REAL bad CRAVINGS for sow time don't happen often. Just needed to vent. Hazel

It is so sad to think that we had let food become such an important part of our lives. But on to a new life where we learn to put food in it's proper perspectiv. Hazel

OK, Chicken Egg Foo Yung 1 Cup = 245 calories and 17 grams of protein (I'm guessing that's one patty) Not bad

There have been a few times when I think to myself how much I'd like to go out to dinner and just enjoy it for once....yeah! Meaning, not having to stress over chewing food to death and what is going to sit well, what possibly won't, how much sugar is in something, etc. Chele

I so know what you mean. I am in the process of getting my restraunt ready to reopen and I am so afraid to eat for fear I will get sick and have to take time out to get to feeling better. Eating is no longer fun. I use to joke about food being my friend. It stuck with me when no one else would, but that is what got me to the point of having WLS. The food stuck by me through thick and thin. But it would be nice if it could be fun eating the few bites I can get down. Hazel

OH HAZEL, I'll go to the chinese buffet with you. I love chinese food. I have all kinds of cravings. I buy the wierdest stuff at the grocery store. I know darn well I can't eat them but I bought a brownie mix at the store the other night. I just want to crunch something most of the time! God Bless, Jen

Me to. I love potato chips and stuff like that. I, like you, buy things knowing full well that I can't eat it. Well I can (junk goes down better than good food) but I have gone through to much to give in. I just about died during surgery and again after. I don't want that to be for nothing. Hazel

Too funny, I've been wanting Egg Foo Yung. How much protein is in Egg Foo Yung anyway? I'll have to look it up and let you know. I did have a South Beach Kung Pao Chicken Dinner and it was really good! I know it's not the same but it smelled like it

I also tried the South Beach Diet Kaung Pao Chicken dinner and it was good. I don't really get cravings to pig out, just cheesecake once in a while. Luckily Jello makes a SF Cheesecake Pudding and I make that.
