Post Op Liquid Diet

[roxyraquel 77]

Suckssssssssss! I'm tired of liquid just venting :-( everyone around me eating really good smelling food and I'm stuck eating broth grrrr and hubby keeps saying you know what you were getting ur self into ....I did but still doesn't help you eating a huge box of pizza in my face :'( I'm just mad its not even that I want pizza I'm a meat eater and I would just like some meat or something other then broth!

Just remember you're healing inside and out....there is a reason for the liquid and you're doing great! Let them eat pizza and whatever else it is. It doesn't mean you'll never be able to have it again....it will come in time but, for now you're doing what's best for you!

I know it's not always easy....and we can't expect the people around us to stop their normal routine...we can only go along with it knowing we made the right decision and we're getting healthier.

You can do it girl! We're here for you!

I'm 3days post op and I'm having trouble with this today. I feel hungry which i didn't expect! and i have to feed my 4 children. being stuck home all weekend since I'm not supposed to drive I've been trying to cook half way decent for my children and then leave the kitchen before i want it! Commercials on TV are getting to me too. Guess i can't wait for stage 4! Been researching fast food menus all day so know what if anything i can eat once I'm off this liquid diet... I'm very busy being a single mom they get fast good at least once a week. Still trying to break away from that too.

Maybe make your kiddos something you don't find appealing? Just a thought...Wishing you good luck, lots of will power, and tons of car commercials!!

I stocked the house with everything they like and i don't along with most of the foods i can eat on a liquid diet but after the first day home its all appealing to me! I'll be glad when they go to school on Monday and i only have to make one meal a day for them. Bad as that sounds i won't be so tempted!

Don't even think about feeling bad for that!! My surgery isn't until Friday, but I know how it is to count down til the kids go to school!

I completely empathize with you! I have posted a similar thread on here regarding not being able to eat. This is miserable but we have to tell ourselves it won't be this way forever. Im trying to stay super focused. I pray you are as well! We CAN do this!

You are really dealing with a lot right now, it is hard to take the time for yourself to heal and concentrate on yourself with four children to fix meals for. I hope it gets easier. Sending you positive thoughts and gentle hugs.
