I just cried ( melt down )

I have been there, too. Sometimes the emotional part is the hardest. I was sleeved 12/20 and on Clear Liquids at Christmas. That was pretty rough and a bowl of homemade Chex Mix caused my tears. I keep reading that it does get better so I just keep that in mind. It does get better!

I was sleeved on 1-22-13 & I have been struggling to get in all of the Water & Protein my doc wants me to have. I've been drinking Isopure, from GNC. One 20 oz bottle has 40 g of protein & can double as your water. It tastes sort of like Gatoraide. I drink 1 & 1/2 throughout the day.

Major surgery am the most depressing time of they ear. Broke from Xmas, bills coming in, crappy weather in the month of jan. I've had my share of breakdowns. Praying for January to end and look toward to a new month with a new attitude, goals and tribulations. I am 7 weeks out and doin better now but still can't wait for January to end!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
