What you are feeling is perfectly normal. course 6 days out I wasnt cooking anybody anything so kudos for that. I hit that stone wall about 2 months out and boy was I pissed. But for me it was going out to dinner after a ball game and all of them being able to eat whatever they wanted. Then had to remind myself... I made this decision, I am the one that is fat... and deal with it. It does get better. But I will say it time and time again... our minds are our own worst enemy. Hang in there honey!!!

I had to keep reminding myself I had days and years of eating good stuff whenever I wanted ... Waiting a few months until I could gain control wasn't going to kill me. It worked most days, and when it did not, I search for new clothes in magazines I could have never fit into.

Don't feel angry. It's ok one day at a time.

I feel like this often.. I make sure I have out what I am going to eat along with what I am making for my kids.. Then I tell them they can't finish their food/meal before me... That helps all of us...

I totally understand what you are going through. My sister will tell me almost daily. I am not on a liquid diet you are. I am lucky that I don't have to cook for my family. I still do get mad at the things that are said. It ok to get mad that why we are here to listen and support you through it.

      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.
