I'm 8 days post op and a total emotional wreck... I want to eat

Food !!!! I'm in a 2 wk liquid diet and feeling frustrated. Anyone else have this issue ??? ????

I, too, am on the 2-week liquid diet. Today is day 6 for me and I am already tired of this. I was getting the heaves on the chicken broth until I decided to add 1 spoonful of cream of chicken to the broth and then liquify it in the blender. What a difference it made! The broth was still as thin as Water but the flavor was more like the cream of chicken Soup. I also am drinking Isopure Icy Orange which has the nastiest after taste. I mixed the Isopure with orange flavored G2 and now it is delicious. Maybe these little tips will help you, too. Hang in there...it will all be worth it!

Thank you !!!! Will have to try that !!! I love the support on here !

I'm also on day 8 post op and had a challenging day today too. I would have been happy with just a little refried beans. I had a bad hour during the afternoon fighting this. But I went to the kitchen, got a bottle of water, a cup of broth, and a SF pudding and just kept sipping. That helped a lot. Maybe I was bordering on dehydration. I kept reminding myself that I'm doing this for a reason and to be strong.

You got this girl! You are well over half way there! You can do it!!

Thanks !!!! If I have to smell broth again I think I'll puke ????

Try some egg drop soup (puréed) - tastes like a scrambled egg. I found it very satisfying.

My surgery is next week and I had a question for ya'll post sleevers.

Are you feeling hungry on your liquid only diet?

They say the surgery removes the hunger hormone, is that feeling true?

Did you experience any vomiting post op?

Sometimes a little bit. But it's more a desire to be eating what I can't have. Sort of a head hunger. I was very nauseous the first two days after surgery and did dry heave once, which was very painful. I didn't want to drink anything at all, or even look at it, until day 3.

It did for me. I rarely ever get hungry. I have to remind myself to eat.
