Cravings

I thought it would be much easier to not wanna est anything.. Instead I'm having the hardest time doing Water every 15 minutes, but feel like I could give in and eat.. Sucks

I am with you!!! Anyone who says this is the easy way out I would like to smack!!! You still have to fight food cravings and follow a healthy diet. Not to include exercise.

It will be. Hang In there. The first few weeks are rough and then it starts to get easier. We will always struggle but it really does help. Good luck to you. Feel free to vent here to us. We understand and maybe able to help you. :-)

What you are feeling is all NORMAL. We have all been there. As far as the wanting foods just give it time and you can eat them. Do not eat them early, it will taste great going down, but coming back up is a different story. You are experiencing head hunger and it is the demon you have to fight. It will get better as the months roll by, but it is hard at first. As for Water intake I was like you pre op, but rest assured that this too shall pass. Just give things time and hang in there.

What people do not understand is that a person who does not get the surgery can not stick to a liquid sf diet forever. They still have a big stomach with big cravings and your body will force you to eat, then it will store that food. Tjis is why we were powerless to.do this on our own. Other people with opinions suck. Just sayin
