I'm struggling, a lot.

I am depressed, apparently clinically. I came on here hoping for advice and instead got what felt like judgement from people. I haven't been back on since.

I'm not supposed to be on Protein bars till 12 weeks. Just realized today that I'm not supposed to have onions! Thought that was on my list . I was so tired this morning I had to sit at the stove just to cook my Breakfast. I can already eat 4 oz of food and I will be 4 weeks Monday. I'm trying to contact a dietician today! Idk what else to do. Just tired all the time, but WANT to go out. Then, because I am housebound, the cravings kick in! At least it feels that way.

Chili home made no onions I use onion powder anyway put it in the blender after it has cooled never blend hot liquid! Anyway it actually taste like chili you just put it in a mug I have serving size cups bowls even plates and so on I pour it in there and heat it back up put some fat free sour cream on it and Sprinkel cheese on it all fat free I even use the vegan kind high in Protein anyway it's wonderful! It's warm taste just like actual chili! So many things after you blend them just suck! But the chili is great!

Can you have baked potatoes yet just don't eat the skin. Also drink true mint tea! Helps with the gas and it can smell awful just embarrassing bad! It the mint tea dose the job of getting rid of it and there is no smell if you do have gas.

      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.
