    Help - Grumpy AF

    you may want to give your surgeon a call to see if there is anything you can eat. sometimes they will allow some carrots or celery. I know it's not much, but it's something to chew and may help you feel a little better. also, try to avoid your 'snacking habits' (i.e watching tv, sitting on the computer, etc) I did a lot of reading and using my kids coloring books, anything to distract myself from my hunger. I agree that this is the worst part of the process and you've already made it half way! you can do it!

    Help - Grumpy AF

    not gonna lie, the liquid diet totally sucks, but it does get better. and like you said, your body will feel better and the scale starts moving down, which was a big inspiration for me. think about all you've been through to get here for motivation to stick with it. and it's okay to be grumpy too, it's not easy but you've got this. hang in there
  3. If I can do it, anyone can do it! The first week is the hardest part, it gets a little easier after that. Jello was good to get that chewing effect and s/f ice pops worked too. I did get tired of the artificial sugar taste all the time (I couldn't have broth either) so I would put a little dab of salt on my tongue just to get a break from that sweet taste. Drinking water and Crystal Light helped too. As tempted as I was to cheat, I just kept telling myself that I would hate to do anything to jeopardize my progress and have to start all over! Hang in there!
