I found something i LIKE ;)



Recommended Posts

I was so upset that I couldn't find something I liked since I only had surgery 4 days ago. Well my sister made me Soup and I only had the broth. Omg I loved it so freaking much. It didn't bother me at all. I had the 4 ounces less then 30 min. I wanna cry because I am glad I found something I am enjoying and satisfying. I honestly feel great now :) I'm full and jut laying down watching catfish lol. I walked a lot around the house since it's snowing out. I don't feel sick or dizzy. I pray to god that I will continue this way in the future :) I have HOPE .... I didn't realize giving up food would be so emotionally hard.. But I can do this !!!

Great to hear! The first time I had broth after surgery I thought I had died and gone to heaven it was so YUMMY!

You are so right about giving up food being emotionally hard. I remember at about 1 month out, going through the grocery story and actually mourning the loss of chips and donuts and candy. Mourning! It was the oddest thing.

You can do this!

the broth also helps with the gas pains in the beginning because it's nice and warm! :)

TOTALLY understand! I'm eating Bean with Bacon Soup for the first time as I type. High in Protein and delicious! It's going down SO EASY! This food snob has found comfort in condensed soup! Yay!

      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.
