I am six days into my preop diet. I can only have 3-4 protein shakes per day, SF jello, SF Popsicles, and clear broth. The first 3-4 days were pure hell. I was very hungry and accidentally cheated on the first day. I forgot I wasn't supposed to eat, and had a handful of movie theatre popcorn. I guess that shows how I used to mindlessly eat. After then, almost every night, I dream that I eat real food then suddenly remember I can't... I guess guilty conscience.
I haven't told anyone but my husband, mom, and two close friends. I have three children and haven't even told them. No, it's not because they are too young and won't understand.... They are 18, 15, and 12. I guess maybe I don't want to worry them and I don't want them to say anything to others?!?!
Why why why is there a negative stigma with WLS??? Maybe it's just me??? Maybe I'll feel better about telling people when it's over and I'm Successful?? Either way, hardly anyone knows.
