Mushrooms are a great source of Protein. Slice up, salt and pepper, and sauté for a quick, super-filling meal. I ate them a lot pre-op and plan to continue in a few months.

Day 8 post-op here. I googled bypass meal schedule and found some I liked. My program did not come with one.

I started with Decaf, but some brands make me sleepy. I switched to Yerba Mate after I saw a documentary discuss how caffeine taxes your adrenals too much. So the knowledge of that and alternatives have helped me. Herbal tea with cream/artificial sweetener is my fave alternative.

You’re amazing.

Read some romance, heavy on the sex novels. Look up some sensual gifs. If you do that, is it triggering anything? Best of luck!

To “keep my head in the game,” I frequently went back to why I wanted the surgery. Personally, when my kids wanted me to play with them, I would be winded after 10 minutes. They deserve a parent who needs to be healthier so I could be there for them. I am their example and if I fail at everything else in life, I refused to fail them.
It could help your headspace to frame it that way - doing the surgery for a different cause besides the overarching “lose weight.” This path is very much a physical, emotional, and mental challenge. Best of luck to you!journeyofalyssa and mil_unloaded reacted to this -
