I didn't feel this in the beginning, but sometime when I want to eat something that taste good and can only have a bite or two then yes, I will have small regrets, I think we all do at different stages of our journeys.

I certainly did about 3 weeks ago when my girls had a Band Banquet and I thought, I could have a very small piece of cake from costco. Boy was I very wrong. It was the first and only time I had been so sick that I had to throw up. Let me tell you I had a lot of regrets that day. I told my husband I am so sick of not being able to eat what I want, but then he reminded my how nice I am looking and how strong I am getting, and with out this WLS I would not have been able to get where I am now.

So, just know we all have these feelings, it is how we deal with them that make the difference. Good Luck I hope you have moved a little past this point.

Tess.

I have actually thankyou

Surgery Date 5/18. I now can tolerate some fluids. Actually had a Protein Shake this am. Spasms are getting less. This has been rough for me. I have no energy. I feel like I cannot do much. I am 17 days out. What type of diet is everyone else on at this point? I have daily regrets because I cannot tolerate much. food is social, I haven't been going out, I feel like I'm missing a lot. I don't know...

      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.
