Your right it has a lot to do with hormones and all the changes. Best thing I did was keep my hands busy and realize it will pass.

I was a nightmare week 3-5. My poor husband and sons, they couldn't do right for wrong and I was a complete nightmare. It will pass, just hold onto that thought and keep busy. :)

I've been the same way...my poor husband don't know what to think...the reason I feel like I'm not doing right is because I'm almost 3 weeks out and still on liquids cuz of my hiatal hernia repair

I am going to try and stay busy as soon as I feel it coming on, and hold in my heart that " this too shall pass"

Holy Cow! I thought it was just me. I'm 4 weeks out and my emotions are running rampant. I'm so weepy. Thank you for sharing. It made me feel more normal.

      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.
