  1. My Surgical team told me to not expect much in the first month or so. Your body will take a while to settle, it's like having a baby. Your body and hormones are all out of whack, but after that hump it will come off easily.

    Craving

    I am in the same boat Maddy. I'm day 9 and I'm SOOOOO sick of liquids. Would kill for some scrambled eggs.

    I am day 8 since my surgery and I want food. Not steak or anything (but that would be tasty) but eggs, mashed potatoes, ricotta cheese, cream cheese, soft foods. I am a water drinker and like you all it's getting hard. I have been using the premier protein shakes and even those are getting hard to drink. I am hungry lately and i really think it's all in my head because physically I don't feel hungry. At my 1 week appointment I did find out that I was very dehydrated and need to be careful or I will have to get admitted for IV fluids. I pushed it yesterday and drank too much and it ended up coming back out. That was not a fun feeling. I just can't wait to get over these first stages.

    August 10, 2016 Surgery date

    I had my surgery on 8/10 and that whole week leading up to the surgery I went through every emotion you can think of. Sadness, anxiety, fear, anger. I'm glad it's over and that I did but I know it's going to be a long hard road ahead. I just hope I can stay on course and not fail like a few people I know that had the surgery did. They acted like nothing was different and went back to their old habits and gained back the weight they lost and in one case more than what they lost.

    I had my surgery on August 10th and my Doctor and Dietician just this past Wednesday added Greek yogurt and cottage cheese to my shakes and clear fluids. It is getting really hard. I want eggs and mashed potatoes at least.
