I cannot wait for mushy food. Friday.....come on Friday!!!!

I don't blame you! Even one week liquids was difficult, so I can imagine the torture of two weeks! 3 more days! I think the mushy will get old for me because I don't transition to solids until next Thursday....bandster hell, we will make it through it!

Wow! I am excited for you. I have been eating Soups like Tomato, thinned down cream of chicken....even broccoli-cheese soup....I don't eat the chunks. I made Jello and it was crazy how little I could eat. I can do about a cup or just under of Soup, but could only get 3 spoons of jello down.

Good for you on still having little hunger! I can tell mine is back, but making sure I keep my head in the game on my ultimate goal! Good news is I am an Accountant and am in busy busy season, so I am keeping myself occupied through the hunger! We are on our way!!!

Well, it was inevitable I'm sure...I'm officially hungry and craving like crazy....2 weeks and 3 days post op...doesn't help that I was down 20 pounds as of Friday, but gained 2 pounds this weekend for some reason - even while staying disciplined....that just kills the motivation and makes me want to give in to the hunger and cravings...grrrr....Frustrated and venting, sorry...

Does the 20lbs include the pre-op diet?

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
