Ok what is everyone eating at this point? Any problems with food?

I had surgery Tuesday, everything went smooth and I was released the next day. So this is now post surgery day 4 and I think I may be slowly losing my mind. I haven't had any complications and I'm not really in that much pain- for which I am grateful on both accounts. But I.am.starving. I am on full liquids for a month and I feel as though I may CRACK. I am getting in most of my water and a lot of my protein and I eat a couple tablespoons to a half a cup every 3 hours and all I think about is FOOD. What am I doing wrong??? A month seems like a cruel agonizing joke.

LOL, yes I meant pangs.

Considering you are lucky and not feeling the hunger, you're being a little judgemental towards people who express how they are feeling. I was sleeved on the 13th and I too have questioned my decision because of the hunger and wanting to eat with my family and be satiated. These are very real feelings and if you were feeling the hunger pangs some of us have admitted to feeling- you wouldn't be as quick to judge. This is more of a mental struggle than a physical one and it can be BRUTAL.

Thank you so much for the reply. My family while supportive, have no clue what I'm going thru. I just blended up some baked beans and they taste great. I have decided I do need to get more creative if I am going to make it.

Hello all! I am new to the group and I am scheduled May 13 for gastric sleeve. I am so nervous and excited!!
