chrissy86 got a reaction from Arabesque in Does it ever get better ?Listen to your body and go back to what feels more comfortable for a couple more days. The time the surgeons give is an estimate, and everyone is different.
A couple more days on liquid and you'll feel much better in the long run.
Try out little bits of food here and there to test your tummy on how it will react. Like for example, a couple of tiny pieces of meat, chicken or fish in the Soup you're eating. Or some strawberries or banana in the yoghurt.
In other words, throw in some lumps and feel how your stomach digests each mouthful. And CHEW. Taste each mouthful and enjoy. You'll get there.

chrissy86 reacted to Sosewsue61 in Very discouraged after sleeve|You might need to see your nutritionist, and a therapist.
Yes, we all have to follow the plan given to us in the pre-op appointments. Starches and not much different nutritionally than ice cream, it all turns to sugar. Most of us that have been obese for decades are insulin resistant, and that means we need to severely limit those types of carbs and eat non-starchy vegetable carbs, not even fruit - as it has a higher glycemic index.
Tough love here, if you want success you follow the plan, period. That is why I suggest therapy and an 'honest' NUT appointment.
