You Know You've Been On Liquid Protein Too Long, When:



Recommended Posts

I have been on liquids for 3 days now. Today I went to bed and said to everyone just wake me up

On nov. 13th ( surgery date) ! The worst part is making dinner for the husband and kids only to have to stare down another protien shake '-'

Ugh, I feel for you... Luckily in my case, my husband does a lot of the cooking anyway, so while I am on Protein, I stay out of kitchen when husband and kids eat.

Or drink a swig of Pickle Juice for the salt fix.

Yes... I've done it ( so ashamed)

nothin' wrong with swiggin' pickle juice!! Claussen is the best! heck, down here they freeze them in small cups and sell them for 25 cents...Pickle Pops!...Yes, that's incredibly redneck and yes, I'm incredibly ok with it! LOL

You've been drinking Liquid Protein too long when you smell the shake and gag... :huh: I'm SICK of shakes now even though I can eat a little, I still can't eat enough to stop drinking them.

You know you have been on a liquid diet when ur fiancé has his arm around you and you think to yourself if he would still marry you if you chopped off his arm, marinated it and BBQ it...

You made me laugh out loud. I needed that!

I hear ya! I cooked on the weekend for the whole week for my family. Fortunately, my husband is easy! So he just heated up what he wanted each night while I had even more Campbell's Tomato soup!

When you can't even get through 1/4 of an up&go...not because of ur small stomach, but because u just can't do it!!

BTW I'm on soft foods now but my morning Protein shake or up&go ritual is now intolerable!

I'm dying for a salad and actually craving chicken which I don't really love... That's how I know I've been on liquid diet too long... I'm not even craving Pasta or sushi (ok I am but not as much) I just want something I can chew.. Last time I ate something chewable was nov 2 so.. 21 days ago!!!!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
