Why am I so hungry????? I feel like i did when i was doing the pre op diet. Struggling to get through that diet, what got me through it was thinking...it wont be as hard after the surgery. Now 5 days out, im on full liquids but i feel like im starving! i have to get in 48 - 64 ounces of liquid in but i want food or liquids all the time. I have not been getting all my liquids in either as much as I want. I also sometimes feel pain after i drink...would that be cause i was going to fast ? Am i just so destined to be overweight that Im going to fail at this too?? Im scared and confused.

Im sorry....i havent responded! Im doing better since i started the thread. Im not as hungry and find as long as i can get soups and yogurts in then it helps alot. Thank you to everyone who has replied with their thoughts and ideas.

I am on full liquids and I am confused. I am supposed to be getting 48-64 oz. in a day. Yesterday i think i totaled 41 oz. i dont know how to get this in. Am I just sipping on full liquids all day long at any time (hungry or not) to get my liquids in. Is there like a hourly plan that I should follow? And if it takes me the hour to get those liquids in and then Im full do I start the next hours fluid regardless of the fact that I feel full? Do i go at my own pace with whatever liquids I want when I want it? :confused1:

Yes it does hurt after each drink and then like you said alot more if its too close together. Maybe i am just noticing how much i tend to drink and feel like its alot. I dunno....i do need to ease up but man this was a serious surgery and im just a lil scared it wont work. (Despite the fact that since the 25th Im down 9lbs, yes im crazy thinking it wont work) How long do you have to be on full liquids? Thanks for the pick me up girl! I havent had too much support!
