Oh and Iv been trying to get my daily Water intake accomplished. It’s not easy, but I’ve been getting about 64oz of water in a day. Plus getting in around 100g of Protein in a day too!

Are you noticing any signals of fullness or hunger? I just feel kind of "there"---not hungry, not full, just there. So, I'm able to get most of my requirements in, but I worry that I'm not getting a full signal. Does that not show up until we're off full liquids?

I feel the same! I can’t tell if I’m hungry and I can’t tell if I’m full! I smell food and I see food l that I used to love, so if course I want it...but am I hungry? Is my stomach hungry or is my brain hungry? It sucks! Then when I do drink my Soup (cause all I can have right now is liquids) I can’t tell if I’m full or not. I’m just blah. Then I sit there and worry, did eat/drink too much??

macpower u are doing so good,glad ur bk on.i thnk because of our stomachs still being swollen from surgery & not fully heeled yet & our taste buds being so off that it is hard to tell if ur full or hungry.i feel like i need to eat 6 sm meals a day.i am starting to feel full quicker now.my dr wants me to eat 3 meals a day but i can only eat so much at a time but then im hungry 2 hrs later.im sure it will b easier to do once im eating real food again.i am on pureed food now but just cant stomach looking at my food like that except for soups.i made a lasagna bake w soft zucchini & squash on the bottom,a shepherds pie,sauteed spinach,rsted acorn squash & a pumpkin pie custard the other day.it was great to cook again.i can smash up my shepherds pie & it went dwn well.the lasagna bake was delicious but kind of rich,the sauteed spinach did not agree w me so well.the pumpkin custard was yummy & the acorn squash was good.i did try some chkn in little bitty bites & spinach & lets just say it started out well but shortly after everything came up.well i guess it serves me right for not pureeing it first.its also so hard to eat slow,especially when it is soft food.

I don’t ever seem to be really hungry at all. But your right, everything inside of us is still healing! I can’t wait to get to soft foods. This liquid diet is just so boring.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
