So I was diagnosed with anorexia. This was sooo hard to hear even though I kind of knew in the back of my head. I never thought I would ever have this...having been overweight most of my life. Its going to be a long road to recover from this. Just want to let people know...please please seak counceling after this surgery! Whether you feel off or not. And follow what the doc and nut says to a T. This last 6 months since surgery has been hell for me! In and out of the hoapital...at one point almost died from not eating. Its no joke and it can happen to anyone.

I totally understand. when I was sick with my scar tiissue issue, I couldn't eat and when I tried to eat it would more than likely come back up. After vomiting, I could forget attempting to eat again for at least 24 hrs. I was scared I was going to develop an eating disorder. My digestive system intestines became fused together so the pain, nausea, lack of appetite were due to that.

I will keep you in my prayers. Please stay encouraged. This too shall past.

What caused your scare tissue and your digestive intestines to become fused together?

      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.
