Wow really?? That's interesting ... Thanks

Ok, 6 days out now I feel some pain in my stomach when I sip water I feel like it's the water pushing through then the pain goes to my lower abdominal where my tummy is... Weird or normal??

Ahhh. Ok I get it .. Thanks

I hear it all the time ! I wanna know too

Has anyone had pain on their right side? I was eating cream of wheat could it mean I had too much? Or maybe my stomach didn't like it?any advise would help.

Bellaboom yes you are going to experience all sorts of feelings and emotions after surgery you just need to prepare yourself and know that at the end it will be all worth it. There is not a single person that I have talked to or read anywhere that regret their decision. The mind hunger is our own demon we need to fight. I think it's one of the reasons why we are where we are is because we aren't able to tell of we are really hungry or just bored, well at least that was the case with me. But be positive and we are here for you. Good-luck if I can do it anyone can.

@belkabloom thank you so much for all the advise. My mom was suggesting I chew up and spit out too .. Maybe I'll do that if I really need to but I am ok for now. I live in Los Angeles and my parents love up north in sacramento it's a 6 hour drive and 8 hours if I take the train there's no way I am driving lol. Dr wants me to be close by incase of any complications but I feel fine. I have a dr appointment on the 31st I'll ask them again and if all is well I can go that same day and be there for my birthday yay!! I am being positive

Berkeleycurves I right there with you with the same struggles... Today I had cream of wheat couple spoons I was done. Make sure to drink as much water as possible. I know it's hard but we can do this!! I was crying last night I just went to sleep and was crying... It's hard but I am sure it will get better. Hang in there I am glad there are others who understand me. You can reach out to me also anytime I will be here ...

Thank you for the encouragement marylandcrab

Yeah last year this time I had breast augmentation and indo remember feeling the same way... But the not eating part has a lot to do with it too. I physically am not hungry at all but for some reason am feeling depressed ...

I'm am trying ... I can't wait for a few months to pass by.. God I hope it goes by quickly !!

@@maggie0210 my mom has been here since the 16th my surgery was on the 17th she's leaving Christmas Eve she has to be home with all my other family members... I just can't seem to concentrate to read a book or something ... I am 6 days post op this is harder than I thought ... I am hanging in there but everything seems to be annoying me!

I feel like I am going to have a mental breakdown. I am sitting on the couch watching tv and even that is annoying me right now. I wanted to go to my parents for the holidays dr said no so that's another bummer. I feel fine just very bored and there is nothing to do but sleep sit and walk around the house. I feel the depression coming over me !!!!!!! Hellllllppppp

Can someone please explain to me what this "honeymoon phase" is I keep hearing about ??

I am 5 days out and I am just feeling very low... Everything is irritating me and i just want to cry... This is one of the hardest things I have to go through ... I am bored I am tired and emotionally drained ...

Are we just going to end up hating food for the rest of our lives or what??

I am trying to keep as positive as I can, but man this is tuff!! I sleep nap most of the time so time can go by fast. So I won't see people eating and being merry... Even tho I don't feel physical hunger it's the training my head part that's hard. Thanks everyone it's good to know I am not alone ..

I am sick of broth, sick of SF jello, sick of isopure which I can't even drink anymore so disgusting!! Tomorrow I start stage two liquids we will see how that goes... I'm just frustrated it's the holidays everyone is eating good food the smell is attacking my nostrils and head!! All I want to eat is some nuts! HELP!

Lmfaooooo i am 5 days out this freaked me out!!

@@tebowfan thanks girl I got your message ... How long are you post op now? I have to go her the gasx strips... I will start sipping on isopure today hopefully it goes down well and tastes ok...
