ok ok, I have to admit something ... I cried today! I just had the ultimate meltdown, I was feeling so down and I honestly don't even know why. Sort of like when you're pregnant and you just cry for no apparant reason. I was second guessing my decision and all but here I am better again and back on track. I absolutely did NOT get all of my protein in today AGAIN!! GRRRR. My nutriionist says I should be taking in 2 ounces of liquid every 15 minutes ... WELL, by hour 4 this am I thought I was going to explode! I cannot take that much in so I cut it back to one ounce every 15 or two ounces every 30 and that seems to be ok. I introduced some broth today and that felt like a treat to taste something different for a change! LOL. I really hope my sister takes me to get my nails done tomorrow since that is becoming a neccesity! I hope everyone is staying strong today unlike myself! ;)

I am getting sleeved Monday and everyone has talked about the first three days being hard, at least you are able to post so you must not be in pain? Am I right?

Hang in there it will get better. Work on fluids over protein if you have too. If you don't get enough fluids you may get nauseous. Just something to look out for. Cut yourself some slack, rest, walk, stay hopeful for the change which will come.

Hang in there it does get better! I had trouble drinking anything but now I can drink two protein drinks a day plus water! I had mine on 3/27/13. One day at a time!
