SuperFab 689 Posted February 15, 2014 Will do... Thanks! You did not go through everything you have to weaken now. You're stronger than this pre-op diet. I've read your journey as you posted. You got this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LoveNKindness 25 Posted February 15, 2014 Thank you! It's the feeling weak and headaches I can't takeits good to vent here, we all understand! I didn't think I could do it, but I did. And in my life there have been very little food related victories Think about how much safer you will be in surgery if you follow the diet. Cheating could endanger your life.

jpov821 79 Posted February 15, 2014 I feel your pain Shaylove. Today was a very bad day for me. I'm now 4 days post-op and I wanna strangle someone for a little bit of real food.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vanceheather5 69 Posted February 15, 2014 My family had a cook out tonight! Steak, chicken, sausage... Etc... And then there was me with a Protein Shake. I was mad on the inside! Plus I don't FEEL any different. I can easily drink a coffee mug full of broth. I'm terrified that when I get on reg foods that ill be able to eat just as much as I could before. I have not yet experienced "full". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jpov821 79 Posted February 15, 2014 Ahh man that had to be like torture!!! Good job not giving in tho!! I have the same thought about not really feeling full and still eating as much as I used to. Just gotta hope the surgery does what it's supposed to to limit the food intake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(((Hugs))) : ) it's just hard for me to watch my husband having to do EVERYTHING when I feel like I can do something but clearly all I can do right now is get my walking in. Anything more wears me out really bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
