Yeah I hear ya, I was feeling the same way on Sunday when I went to my FIL house and he made corn on the cob and italian sausage and potato salad, OMG I just sat there salivating!! I added another scoop of Protein Powder to my shakes, talked to my Doc about it today at post op appointment and she said that was absolutely fine. It seemed to make a difference for me so maybe you could try that? I think no matter what way us wives and mommies do it, it is going to SUCK making yummy dinners for the fam for the next few weeks! It will be over before we know it and I just keep telling myself that these stages are important and that it won't last forever, UGH!

I am at the end of my 2 week post op liquid diet tomorrow. I did it, the whole way without cheeting at all. I feel like I have accomplished a huge feat! I feel like I can do anything now since I have endured these past 2 weeks of torture. I Am wanting way more food than my lil cup o Soup. I am ready for a big ol t-bone....LOL I would have to say, I was about a week out when I noticed my desire for more food was increasing. I wasnt staying full that long, and wanted to eat more often. I think its normal. I have to say, lunch after my doc visit in the morning is going to be WONDERFUL.:biggrin:

I have NO idea WHAT I am going to get though. HMMMM:bored:

I was banded 8/10/09 and dammm I am hungry.. It is so sad cooking all these meals for my bf and just watching him eat. My doctor has had me on liquid diet for two weeks after surgery. I then go to "soft foods". Well, I cheated. Today I forgot my protien shake at home and just drank Water all morning until lunch. At lunch I went to a Chinese Restaurant and had a Won Ton Soup. Drank the broth and ate a few little shrimps, and egg that it had in there.. NOthing happened....just that my bowl movement was solid since pre-surgury.....lol

Sometimes I think....what have I done...but then I think to the future!! It is all worth it.:confused:

In my mind I am hungry too. I don't feel hungry but I just went to post op appt. today, lost 10 lbs. I have been eating mushy foods nearly all week. I got a talking too today, he told me that I had to stick to the diet cause of the band. I fill no restriction. Not even in the morning. I am ready for a fill. I did good this today, ate malt o meal and Protein Shake. Did good on mushy's. Let's see if I can do this for 3 wks. LOL.. Oh I have to be strong, and just love can tuna..LOL..:drool: I am doing something right, cause I am loosing weight. I also am walking 35 min everyday. :confused: I have neuropathy in my legs and since I have started walking they don't hurt like they did. Thank god.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
