I must be Water Soup and Protein shakes lol this liquid diet is worse than I thought

Oh my yes! I was close to mental breakdown! Couldn't figure out why I couldn't sleep my second week. Slept a total of four hours in 5 days! I finally went to the hospital, the gave me ativan which did nothing and went to my family doctor and got some sleeping pills. After using them for three days I was able to reset my sleep pattern.

Hello! I officially have a date for surgery, it will be a few weeks from now on 3/16!!! What are some things you took with you, or things that you didn't bring but wish you would have brought?

Lol. It should be easier to win your money back.

I'm 7 weeks out and my weight will go up and down every day so I stopped wishing daily. I'm on a stall now. I know it will get better. You didn't gain weight all at once so you can't lose it all at once. Cut yourself some slack. Also taking measurements has been a great motivator for me when the scale is not!

Goodwill. Most have certain sales too Color of the week give me 50% off. Most have a designer section but it's obvious whomever is sorting doesn't know their designers. I'll often find white stag in that section. Walmart. Then in the regular section I found a gorgeous pair of lucky Brand $3 with a 50%off. My price $1.50.

I didnt have any problems either ... just be grateful you can drink and eat well. Stick to weighing foods though and keep to 2-3 oz until your tummy heals more. Also if you had a more dense protein, you probably wouldn't be able to eat as much. Why do you feel as if you are doing something wrong?

Personally I don't have any old smaller clothes, so I'll be shopping Goodwill, and wearing dresses with leggings that can fit multiple sizes.

My sleep cycle was all jacked up for the first week once I was back at home. I had a prolonged stay at the hospital due to some complications so the continual wake-up calls every 2-3 hours for 6 days wrecked me. For the first few days at home I would wake up at 2 a.m. and then just be up from then on. I didn't do anything special to get back on track. Just took my body some time to get back to normal, but it did after a few days. It can be frustrating but it'll get better!

Thank you for this...it made me feel a lot better@nieuwevis [emoji846] Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
