Thank you all so much! I will do this! I woke up this morning and decided to finally weigh myself and I have lost 18 lbs! You bet I will do this! I truly appreciate all of your kind words and advice. I completely forgot about Sonic! I am gonna send my husband to get some for me ASAP........LOL I also just got an email from from my surgeons office saying that my purée diet starts this Wednesday and I thought it was Friday, surely I can do another day and a half of liquids........woooohooooo!

It's just strange, my stomach always grumbles as if I'm hungry. I want it to go away. Sorry I am such a downer but I have never had will power so this has been very hard on me and I wonder why I did it if I have to feel hungry all the time

Just had my sleeve done on Thursday, 7/5 so I am only 3 days post-op and I am starving. The smell and even the thought of broths make me sick. I know I am not getting in enough water and I cannot tolerate the protein drinks. I feel like I am screwing myself up. This is to hard. I just want to chew on something. I LOVE raw carrots and I can't stand to have to wait for them. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get through this?
