The left side pain is still pretty bad but everything else is manageable. I feel okay' date=' tired of liquids too!! Especially with the two weeks prior liquid diet, now this. I am on the full liquids but it is the shakes that I am struggling with. Are you getting them down okay? I think it hurt when it was cold.[/quote']

Unfortunately I can only have broth and Jello and Popsicles for the next few days. I am dying for a Protein Shake lol. I feel like that might at least give me a full feeling. I haven't experienced the problem with the cold stuff. I do wonder whether I am truly hungry or just feel that way watching food commercials and lying next to my fully stocked kitchen all day long!

I am starting week 3 of the Optifast liquid diet. 4 shakes a day and only water' date=' chicken broth or diet Jello. Surgery next Friday 26th. Have lost 17 lbs so far but am so surprised that I am not starving. Getting more nervous regarding surgery but am also excited. Fingers crossed.[/quote']

Oh my goodness! I feel like if you can endure three weeks of that you can endure anything:)

Lol I'm trying to get use to green jello. As a child during the holidays a family member always made a jello salad that my mom insisted that we eat. Now I'm not talking about a yummy jello salad with fruit. Nope it was green jello with pieces of lettuce carrots and nuts! So gross! So when they brought me green jello at the hospital I was like do you have any other colors lol

Lol I know right. At the hospital they had the most delicious Popsicles. There were white ones that tasted like piña coladas and blue ones that tasted like some other tropical drink. I asked them where they were from and they did not know. They were soo good! I haven't been able to find any like them...

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
