kloveburd 132 Posted July 12, 2013 this is Wat I got to look forward to?? (( Well guess I'll find out this morning at my consult. :/ Well my shakes are terrible anyways, others have some that are bearable. Also the hunger kind of goes away after a while, the first 2 days are the hardest but this morning it's been a lot better. Putting random things in my shakes to make them better (oatmeal, fruit, pudding mix) And from what others have said it is worth it for the end result so I have just been reminding myself that in a year from now ill look back and laugh at what a baby I was about it lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BowlingHooker 60 Posted July 14, 2013 How is everyone doing with their preop diets? It's day 7 of my preop diet. So happy to be halfway through it! It's been tough but I feel I have turned a corner. I'm on day 8. Have cheated a bit. Havent lost a lot of weight but am losing. Surgery is Tuesday (7/16). Not excited about it anymore. Nervous. Second guessing my decision to have the surgery. I'm sure its normal - just nerves. I'll be okay. Just want to get this over with. I'm pissed at myself for overeating and getting fat. I'm pissed that the food I love to eat I cant anymore or can't eat the volume that I'm used to. I hate I'm in this position in needing surgery because I couldnt control what I put in my mouth. I'm just pissed right now. I'll be alright. I'm just having a massive pity party. I go on Clear Liquids tomorrow (day before surgery). I went to the gym this morning and will go tomorrow morning. Not much else to do but try to change my attitude. Have a good day all. I'll be okay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not much else to do but try to change my attitude. Have a good day all. I'll be okay. It is really hard to be on the liquid diet! And I hate that food is making my life so hard right now! And I used to have Sundays where I would make spaghetti and eat it all day and watch tv after work. Yes this was comfortable but it needed to change. Like yesterday. Nobody said this would be easy right? Don't give up and keep fighting for your health and let the food go, it's not worth our worries to keep trying to fill our bodies with junk we don't need. I'm on day 5 right now and I've cheated on my liquid diet 3 times now. And not good ha I'm gonna eat a little piece of bread or anything, I took a trip to McDonald's, grazed at a BBQ yesterday, and had a little spaghetti. But I get up after each time and say that it's hard but it will be worth it. I made a shake today and it was a lot better than it has been. So I've been getting better at making them so they are filling and tasteful and not thinking of just cheating cause I can. We can do this!! 1 BowlingHooker reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
