4Th Day If Liquid Diet...feeling Down



Recommended Posts

So I'm actually doing so much better than I thought I would. I thought I would be trying to bite small children by now but its been ok. Now don't get me wrong I'm hungery, but its ok because I am ready to have this surgery and I know its the right thing. But..... I miss food. I just really enjoy food and cooking. Cooking and eating a great dinner with my husband makes me happy. I didn't think I would feel sad and down. I was worried more about just being hungry and wanting food. I hope this is something that will pass and I won't always feel like I'm missing out??

Well, the good news is you will be able to eat again. Just not as much. If you go into it with a quality over quantity mindset, you don't really miss it a whole lot.

Hang in there! The light at the end of the tunnel will be here before you know it!!!!!! It will help too when you can have "full liquids" like creamy Soups and such. You are doing great thus far- keep it up. This will soon be a distant memory!

I'm on full liquids but I was told only Tomato Soup and strained cream Soups nothing my body has to breakdown. That soup sounds delicious! Thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
