All good comments above!

Also, your throat is still raw / sore / swollen from the tube they stuck down your throat during surgery.

That will ease up completely in a few more weeks.

P.S. I'm seeing a therapist (started several months pre-op -- I'm nearly 18 months post-op now). I can't overstate how helpful he has been thus far on this WLS trip. Please consider finding a therapist who has had success working with bariatric patients.

@@Jeanette1246, I can't add any more to what they all have said (great advice) but just wanted to let you know that there are a lot of us on the site who are supportive (as you can see from the responses) .

Please hang in there, you are not alone & I agree...it does get easier.

Thank you! I have taken a little time to just breathe today. I focused on my Water and my premier Protein drinks. I got 44oz. of water down and two 12oz. Premier drinks down. I think I just needed a mini melt down to refocus on why I started this. I am great full for the kind comments and generous outpouring of support from all of you. Each day will be a better day and a stronger me! Thank you all!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I'm so glad you had a better day! Each day will be better!

@@Jeanette1246 ... there you go! That's how this works ... one day at a time, doing what you're supposed to do today. Over and over.

That's literally all you have to do to reach your goals.
