Hi im 6 days post-op and i feel like **** today im taking my multivitamins and drinking plenty of liquids but i dont really know what to eat im feeling very regretful today.

What have you been eating so far? And what does your plan suggest for 6 days out?

What you're experiencing isn't unusual. Lots of us have been there. Your job today is to get through today. Tomorrow is a new day. Good luck!

Hi, I an also on my 6 day pre-op. On my 3rd day, I thought I was going to go crazy. Everybody around me was eating, it felt like they were eating all of my favorite fast foods. I literally almost broke down. I started crying saying why did I let myself get like this. I was extra hungry. Then I had a long talk with husband, looked at my grandkids and came back to senses. I'm still struggling a little, but I guess that's normal. You got this. You only have a couple more days left. I have surgery on Thursday. I am very nervous.

Hang in there. You'll be ok. Just keep reminding yourself the reason why you decided to take this journey. The best is yet to come.

You're doing fine! I'm 6 days post op too and totally understand what you're feeling! Get some rest if you're feeling tired, go for a walk if you're feeling anxious, maybe binge watch some vsg youtube videos if you just feel like you can't do anything else.

On top of water, low cal drink mixes, and protein shakes, I've enjoyed sugar free jello, greek yogurt, and soups so far! Tomorrow I get to start pureed food and Shelly's Baked Ricotta is high on the list of things I'd like to try. We'll get through this. We had an idea of what we were getting into and we knew that we needed a big change to help get ourselves to where we want to be. Let's work towards that and remember that the unpleasant things we're feeling now are temporary.
