Didn't tell my sister



Recommended Posts

My sister is just like yours. Negative Nelly. If I get sick she's jealous that I'm getting attention and she isn't. She's always been that way...she's 74 so I guess she's not going to change.

I chose not to tell my daughter who is bipolar because she uses this kind of info as a weapon. I love her but I have to protect myself from her. In my family I only told my husband and one of my 4 children (aged 14-20) I told the 18 year old. She has been a great support. When my sister thought I was getting wls she panicked. I assured her I wasn't getting that done.
I feel awful lying to them, but really, this is my story and I have the right to share it with those I feel will not use it against me Or violate my trust.
Chin up. Take her comments for what they are worth.
Sometimes people are so used to seeing is heavy that they think we look sick because we are losing weight. They'll get used to it!

      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.
