Help please! Somebody remind me why in the hell I did this. If I am going to survive the frickin liquid stage. If one more member of my family says "I'm sorry" every time they eat something...

we all have our reasons of having this surgery but Im sure that it was due to your health problems and wanting to lose weight. I know that this was the best decision I made and I dont have any regrets. You can do this I know you can, I know that its tough when ppl are eating around you just leave the room or walk away from them or ask them to leave the area. You can do it.... keep up the good work.

Dubbee,

It was hard for me with the liquids. Hang in there. I did the two weeks of preop Protein shakes, one week of liquids, one week of softs and started puree yesterday. I was very "grumpy" when my family had Chinese in front of me. I then just left the room. My husband doesn't get it. I have done things to get my mind off of eating - my garden is looking better than it ever has and my house is becoming very organized. I did have two days where I cried because I was hungry. But now in hindsite - it was emotional hunger, not physical. Each day will be easier, take one day and one Protein shake at a time. Good luck.
