Help!

Today is day two of my two week pre op diet. liquids only with one Protein Bar daily. I find myself not hungry cause I'm drinking so much but it doesn't help that my family orders pizza for lunch and is eating it right in front of me. So, I guess I'm trying my hardest but I ate some of the cheese and pepperoni topping. Anyone else have family not trying to sabotage but their eating habits are affecting yours? I need some help here. Maybe some word of encouragement or advise. I'm so lost. And this bouillon, crystal light, Nd Protein Shake only diet is already getting to me. FYI surgery is December 20th.

I did not eat with my family the entire time I did pre-op...I did not even cook for them..They were on their own as I was..this was about me and what I had to do to be healthier....

you might want to leave the room even if you still have to cook for them....

Maybe I'll just have to do that. Thanks

You know..later when you are in the throws of the journey..you will be able to handle all of that stuff..There may even be that you won't want that kind of food after the sleeve..

But for now you are vulnerable and have to take what ever action works for you. You want to shrink your liver so that it will be easier for the surgeon to do the operation.....

They will just have to understand..It is about you, and you have to do it for you...Hope it helps..

I sat down with my husband and told him how much important this was to me and I really needed his help. He actually started dieting with me. No sweets in the house except for Sherbert or Frozen Yogurt. He only cooks lean meats now. Maybe you need to sit down and pour your heart out. It made my diet and now me new life style so much easier. I did this surgery to be healthy for my family and to make my family healthy as well. Hang a picture of yourself on the fridge or cabinet where your plates are.

Good luck!
