LoLo130 got a reaction from Frustr8 in Two weeks out from surgery and struggling
I don’t think it is is buyer’s remorse, we know it will all be okay in the end, but there are days we struggle. Today was one of those days for me, and I’m only a week post-op. It truly is a lifestyle change and we can’t change everything overnight. The recovery stage is the hardest because your diet is so boring (if I have to drink more chicken broth my head will explode). Best of luck!!
Progress, not Perfection!

LoLo130 got a reaction from FluffySaysForkIt! in New here. Sleep apnea results negative.
Very well said, I never meant for the statement to influence anyone’s opinions or treatment, I was asking a very specific questions about MY experience and MY results.
Thank You!!

I am in the same boat as you are. you have no idea how much I can't wait for mashed potatoes when I can start the very soft foods next week.
I am already thinking about what I will have when I can start real food....
Grocery shopping yesterday was hell, the smell of that fried chicken in the deli.. but I was good, got Soup, yogurt, Jello and milk.

I’m in the same boat! The sweet Protein Shakes ALL THE TIME were too much. I’ve discovered the absolute JOY of creamy Soup with unflavored Protein Powder added 👍🏼👍🏼

LoLo130 got a reaction from Goal_Digger in New here. Sleep apnea results negative.
I have slept well all my life and my boyfriend says I snore but I have never stopped breathing in my sleep. I agreed to do the sleep test in the hospital- overnight the results came back that I had severe sleep apnea and needed to be put on a machine. (Results I completely disagree with) I never followed up about the machine and had me surgery last week.
It couldn’t hurt to do the overnight sleep study in the hospital while being monitored by professionals. What do you have to lose?
Best of Luck

It's better once you get to soft foods, then solid foods. Your stomach knows when to quit eating and you don't get real hunger anymore.

My surgery date was 04/25 & today was a really hard day for me. I'm going to purchase broth & pure Protein tomorrow. I can't have many more days like today.

Soon, you will gradually get to have real food and will feel better. I know how hard it is. My hunger came back day five and broth really helped to fill the hole in my stomach.
Full liquids and I was eating yogurt and that helped.
Good luck!
