Hello to all,

Today is day 7 on liquid diet and day 5 post op. I was put on a seven day post op clear liquid diet which consist of broth, Jello, popsicle, etc. I find myself going through an emotional rollercoster. I am a wife and a mother of 3 boys ages 13, 10 and 1. I feel bad to say this but I really wish I could go away far from my family until this liquid diet is over. It's hard to smell the food cooking and continue feeding the kids when I'm just dying for some. I'm not physically hungry, I'm just so sick of the liquids. Please send some inspiration my way.

Thanks

Just keep drinking and it'll go by really fast.

2 days of liquids is nothing compared to all the god ahead! Keep at it!

Call your Nutritionist or Surgeon tomorrow and see if you can get permission to move up to the next phase. Best wishes on coping successfully with a difficult situation. Whatever the answer is you can cope.....you are a mother!!!

You are almost there. Hang on. I would call your doctor to see if you can move to the next phase.

I had the same problem. Cooking for family was hell. And my 3 yr old is always wanting what I have. So her delicious meal would sit there, and she would beg for my shakes and jello. Now she wants my yogurt and cottege cheese. Doesn't she realize how good she has it?
