Surgery Date....October 8th

[TangiCeleste 7]

I'm not hungry at all... just emotionally hungry, getting a divorce too, since hubby wasn't supportive and chose to party while I was in the hospital so I think it's causing a lot of my pain and emotional buttons saying to eat

Im sorry men can be so dumb. When you have your new body he will only get to look & wish he supported you. My husband has been with me every step. The good thing about this surgery is you cant eat or it will make you very sick. I have realized since the surgery on how much my life revolved around food. We all have these food eating emotions & hope some day these emotions will pass or improve. The pain is really there I tried to come off them to early because they made me sleepy big mistake. You need to stay on top of it. If the pain catches up its so much harder to get under control. Do you have anyone at home to help you?

[TangiCeleste 7]

I have my 14 year old daughter who helps me. Got some go workers trying to find a room for me and my daughter to rent so I can be away from the emotional abuse.

I'm thankful for a co-worker who went thru the surgery last year, she's taking me to a pre op panel, she thinks it will helps speaking to people planning on getting the surgery.

Thats good I am glad you have support. One thing I learned a long time ago is love doesnt hurt. I bet you will do better away from all the abuse. Plus you can show your daughter what not to put up with. I wish there was more I could do to help.

Sorry to hear that but there are a lot of folks who will listen and talk to you on here. I have a good support group at home and on here.

Keep sipping flavored Water as it helps.

I have work next Friday but I think I am going to postpone it another week to make sure I am okay

Do you have chewables? They go down well.

Congrats on your surgery

I do. But the chalky taste is killing me.

So happy everyone is recovering well. I've been able to hold down whatever I eat with no problems. Dream of crunch , even a salad: ) I've been doing cream of chicken Soup made with skim milk and drained, Tomato Soup. V8 juice, sugar free pudding thinned with milk, cream of wheat thinned a lot with cinnamon and sugar free maple Syrup, Protein Shakes. Taking Vitamins well.
