I have to post this thread.

To those of you who have not read the other thread about the egg drop Soup, well I had some tonight, and let me tell you I was happy, that finally I could drink something. The soup would not strain, so I had no choice but to have the egg with the soup. But, After I ate the soup, I felt really sick and really bloated. I had a pudge in my belly section, and when I started the liquid diet, It was starting to go away. I just hope that I didnt hurt the liquid diet. I have been very strict with what I ate up until tonight. I hope that when I have my surgery on the 9th, they wont stop because I hurt myself with egg drop soup. I feel horrible now, just like I did before I started the liquids. Bloated, and full. Anyway, I feel like a failure, uggh. :laugh:

Leslie please do not feel like a failure! I was not on a liquid diet prior to surgery...they just wanted you to eat sensibly and not snack between meals...cut out the sugars and white carbs....

SO you are not a failure! I realize each doc has their own way, so try and follow it but you did not screw it up yet...OK?

Awww, Leslie! Don't be so hard on yourself. I'm sure it will be fine. Just get right back to doing what you're supposed to. One slip isn't that bad, and now you know more about what you can and cannot do. You are not a failure...you're human!

don't u dare feel bad about eating the egg in the soup... trust me your procedure wont be x.o out.. it's not like they are going to say heyy we couldn't band u because the egg was still there n your stomach... trust me u will be ok.. no one is 100% if that were the case they wouldn't need the band...

Chin up! I am sure the pudge you speak of is from the salt. Drink lots of Water and it will go away.
