Thank you. I've being on liquid diet for two weeks and is hard for me cause my husband is being eating fast food in my face. So I've being having mood swings because of that. I don't think he is being as supportive as I thought he was going to be. I'm pushing myself to not throw everything thru the window.

Don't do it! You are worth it.

I think that's something we just have to endure. My husband, as I type this, is indulging in a huge plate of left over ham, scalloped potatoes and green bran casserole from thanksgiving. Last night he had a huge stack of pancake drenched in Syrup. It sucks. Really bad, especially since I am over here sipping on 1 Oz of chocolate protien.

The one think I keep in mind as he shovels his face is that, that is how I got here and I don't want to be there anymore.

Oh wow!! Your progress is awesome!! I'm proud of you. My husband was eating taco bell, chipotle, pizza... I've being having mood swings so I've being arguing with him about this. I beg him to stop all that type of food for at least the first two weeks and he said yes but he didn't so I've being feeling way down but I'm pushing myself to keep going. Thank you for your advice and for sharing your story with me

I woke up to the smell of my husband making pancakes for Breakfast. He asked me if I could have any....Really? pancakes? Did he not hear me say 2 Protein shakes and a small dinner? I stayed in my bed until Breakfast was over. Seriously I wonder how much support Im going to get at home. Good Luck!

I am sorry friend. My husband and I had multiple conversations but the reality your man has to support you. Sometime men need specifics am I right? Instead of saying "I need your support" give him specifics.

Ideas like:

I need you support, please don't offer me food, please don't eat my favorites including x,y and z, etc.

I told Daniel, my husband that the first 3 months are going to be rough, on him too. Once my mind catches up to the physical changes then things can get easier.

      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.
