I’m 9 days post op and struggling big time. I hate everything. I’m tired of the sweet flavored sf popsicles, sf gaterade, sf propel, and protein shakes. I’m sick of them!!!! Pre-op, I developed an adversion to broth, regular, bone, vegetable you name it. Thinking about them makes me queasy. Post op I developed an adversion to sf jello. Now I am starting to develop an adversion to protein shakes because they are so sweet tasting and I’m sick of them. I’d rather just not eat anything to be honest but i know that’s not going to help. Worst of all, my surgeon requires a 4 week liquid diet after surgery. I’m just feeling really defeated, regretful, angry, depressed annoyed. I don’t have any cravings for “bad” foods but I would do anything for savory foods. Chicken salad and tuna salad is what I have been craving big time. I’m like dreaming of it and it sounds so delicious ?. This whole process is definitely making me appreciate food more and I’m pissed at my self that I abused food the way I did. I just feel like I’m being tortured right now. I know these feelings won’t last forever but OMG I feel like I’m in a nightmare that has no end! I’m just venting right now.

The old cup a soups when I was lazy & easy for work. Strained it get out any chunky bits. I also made my own chicken soup. Simmered for ages to cook everything right down. Strained out any big pieces of chicken & vegetables & blitzed to make sure it was smooth. Added more chicken stock to make it a nice thin consistency.

Day 8 post-op here. I feel you big time, wondering if I could just not eat. I’m sipping on Isopure for protein. I’m tolerating rice porridge, cream of mushroom (1 tablespoon or less). I puréed chicken and hard-boiled egg. I was able to eat one whole egg! Hope that helps!
