Listen, I know how it is feeling stuck in a rut! I had a very hard time with the liquid diet too. I ate a lot (I mean A LOT) of jello. I made all kinds. All different flavors, all different ways, and I ate that constantly. I hate broth. I chose to eat that instead and popsicles, and the shakes. When I was able to add soft food, I ate a lot of baby food. Even when I was able to add some more solids. It was easier than pureeing it myself, and most of it wasn't that bad.

Hi! When I had my surgery, I went through a lot of the same things you are talking about. Just remember that this is a process... a journey. One day, one step, at a time. Are you taking your vitamins like you should? You may need more vitamin b12 and d3. B12 will give you more energy and d3 will help with the depression. Also, you may be slightly anemic and need more iron. All of these can cause the symptoms you talked about. Once you get the vitamins you need, along with remembering to keep focusing on your goal, and maintaining your convictions... you will be ok and be ready to go on with the next phase just fine. Remember, too, this was a major surgery. Your body needs time to heal. Give it the time it needs. If you're tired, rest. Sleep is the best way to heal. Hope this all helps. I'm here if you want talk.
