I think we all have had that same exact thought but believe me it gets so much better after you see the weight coming off!! I went on my liquid diet the week of Thanksgiving and I thought that it was the worst thing I could have ever done. Surprisingly I was ok because I put it in my mind that I wanted a life change and this was the start of it. I think we have to understand that we were addicts of food it doesn't change over night and we are still adjusting. You have days that you wanna just go back to being the old you but I promise the new you will love you for what you have done!! Just keep at it and remember it's a mental thing and once you start to accept that then it will get a whole easier!!!

Thank you soo much @redgirl37. I think it's just a change that I'm going to have to adjust to. And with it just happening Friday it's still new to me. I'm so use to my habits that being different or doing stuff different it's the main thing that's getting to me but I will just have to adjust Day by day and know that it was the best decision for my life

"Buyer's remorse" is incredibly common in the early days post-op. You are starving. You are in pain. You are hormonal (remember your system gets flooded with hormones as you break down stored fat). You are wondering if you will ever feel "normal" again. I promise you, it gets a little better and a little easier every single day. The pain only lasts a week or two. The fatigue only lasts a few weeks. You will eventually work your way through the food stages and get into a new routine with your eating. You WILL feel "normal" again. Maybe not the same "normal" as before. But a new "normal". It will probably take a few months to get there, but you will be SO SO glad you made this decision by then.

Have you made goals yet? I went out a year with where I would like to be. I made them sensible and conservative but the ending is FABULOUS! I made them conservative enough that I should blast past them and feel great. Then when it gets hard I think yeah, but will I make my goals if I eat this?

It also sounds AWFUL if you rip a stitch. Yuck!

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
