Oh I totally can relate to that. Trust me. When I had my surgery I had my sister & my nieces & nephews up visiting our very ill father/grandpa. I also live with my ill father who is in end stage renal failure (on dialysis) & has a bad heart (docs dont give him too much more time due to his heart) & I also have a roomate that I have to cook for every day. I had good days & bad days when I was on the liquid diet ( I had a couple of melt downs if you ever see some of my other posts) but it does get better & easier. I am only a lil more then 5 weeks out so it was not that long ago I steuggled with having to cook for everyone & not have any of it. Just stay positive & keep your head up & keep looking to the grand prize at the end---- a healthier, happier you!!!!! You did this surgery for a reason & you can use that reason as your motivation!!!! Keep your faith in God & let him help you on your journey!!!! I wish you the very best on your journey & I pray you find strength in your results along the oath of this journey. Anything that is hard in life is worth the work!!!! Nothing is easy & this surgery is definitely not an easy route & it will get rough at times but as long as you can stay positive & focused on your goals you will be happy!!!! I hope this helped you some.

Aww I didnt mean to make you cry. I know it can be rough but just stay positive & every morning when you wake up google a positive qoute for the day & write it down & put it up on the fridge or a cabinet or a mirror & everytime you feel down or upset or even frustrated walk over to it & read it & remind yourself of how great you are & how much you have accomplished each day & even just from having the surgery itself!!!! I mean taht was a huge step to take & that in itself shows courage & determination!!!!! Yoy will do great on your journey & this forum is great for giving that extra lift tou may need as well so always feel free to put up anything you may be feeling whether it is a bad day or even a celebration of your succes!!!!
