Guys I am on day 3 of liquid diet and I really don't want to do anything because I don't wanna be around food or by the kitchen. And I just feel like how am I gonna survive 2 weeks of this. Any advice?

Hey I am right there with you. Day three and I have considered eating my dogs at this point. As dumb as it sounds getting on here and reading about everyone else's suffering really seems to help. Partially because I am an A-hole but also to see that we are not alone. I have noticed today seems better so far as I am getting use to it. My wife also suffers from my condition (A-hole) and brought a bunch of chips and junk food in the house the first day. She also wanted hotdogs and crap for dinner last night (I do all cooking) so I made them that before eating my cabbage Soup with a nasty Protein Drink (Root Beer Float sucks). Dependant on what she wants for dinner tonight I may have to let the dog lick it first!

So I guess being petty is my coping mechanism.

Cracking up at the a-hole comment, LOL. I call myself that all the time. Heck, I embrace it often. And I saw that Premier root beer and was like hmmmm, but had a feeling it would be nasty.

My hubs didn't even eat last night as I didn't (I posted a rant a sec ago, and you'll see why I was too upset to "eat") So I def can't fault him there, lol. We don't have dogs, but kitties and a house bun, and I'll threaten him with bunny poop in his food if he acts up, LOL

Mine is also on June 7th! I’m not nervous yet but I have a feeling come Monday I’ll start freaking out haha. I only have to do liquid on the day before surgery, other than that no real pre op diet (thankfully) good luck!!

Hi guys. Well…,. I’ve had the bypass and have been out of theatre for a few hours now. No gas pain at all and I can now get up to use the bathroom without the nurse providing I take it a little slower (anaesthetic still a little present). I’m doing good guys - just now going to watch Netflix on my iPad. I’m also going to now brave taking tiny sips of Fluid for the first time 😘🤗

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
