Day 13 Pre-Op And Having A Bad One Today.



Recommended Posts

Woke up today and all I keep thinking about is a pizza or steak. Come on already, I have been very strict and disciplined so far. Now I am trying to rationalize to cheat, what bull hockey pucks! Today is going to suck but have not quit yet. Just had to rant, sorry.

You are totally normal!! At this stage you are sick to death of sweet shakes and want something savory. Hang in there. I am 7 weeks out and the obsession with food gets easier as you are able to eat more things.

I echo what franfaith said. All I could think about was food when I was still on liquids. Once you start eating softs and solids, it will go away. Are you to pureed stage yet? I found just getting new tastes into my mouth helped a lot. If you are not, then try a new Soup, something savory like vegatable soup, cream of Tomato or clam chowder (strained). Hang in there...it will pass. Just DON'T give in and eat pizza or steak yet! It's too early, but I am sure you know this! :)

You can get through it! Last night I had a dream about being at the store picking out the most awesome ice cream sandwich ever and woke up craving one. Just trying to keep it off my mind. I know if I ate it I'd feel bad, and it's just not worth it!

When I was craving pizza I made myself some shredded chicken with a little pizza sauce and some fat free mozzarella. High Protein, low carb, and helped a little.

Don't feel bad, I'm not even a week out and all I can think about is pizza or olive gardens unlimited Pasta bowl.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
