liquids are hell

   Why is it I cant do this?? why is it so much harder after every fill?
I got a adjustment yesterday afternoon. 1.5 cc's. He makes us start over from scratch... ugh!!!!!
  Each time is HARDER, HARDER AND HARDER!!! Why?? What is the problem??? Is it because I know it's a lil extreme? Is it that I just dont have the will power?? HELP!!! I have done it for twenty  four hours and im not kidding its killing me.. I need yogurt... I cant do this two weeks of clear.... cant do it!!!!! helppppp!!!!! I can do full liquids but two weeks clear is not gonna fly..  this ladies is the key to my loss so far, I hate the after diet... two weeks of clear, two weeks of full, two weeks of mushies, then two weeks of regular before next fill appt.. HELP...  Can you tell Im desperate for yogurt??  Think I could cheat??
  Help ladies...

DOn't cheat.. ( well Hell I might..LOL. ) But I can understand your pain! What about just alittle bit of full liquids..
Hmmmm then again I really don't know what you want to hear..
Maybe.. DONT CHEAT>> YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lol...

But 2 weeks of clear liquids is extremely hard to do over and over again after every fill..

GOOD LUCK!

First I would say got beat Dr with a pretzel rod...but you might be tempted to eat it! I cannot give you any advice on this but I can tell ya to look at me and use me as example of whats going to happen if you don't follow his instructions. Look where cheating got me! It is hard...I am sure....I know the determination you have...just try to push throught this! We will cheer ya on! I promise no short skirt on me though......well...it might keep you from wanting to eat!

  Thats just I am determined... I cant seem to dig down and grab it this time... Maybe its the stress of the storm and crap... I would have otherwise been eating my way thru it!! u know??
 Im just really struggling today.. your so funny LeeAnn....

OK, here's my 2 cents worth......do it till ya just can't do it anymore!! 

If that means a week, then so be it.  

A week and a half....even better!

Yeah, it's a tad extreme when you look at the other docs in the group but only you can make the choice to follow things to a T or not.

I know what I'd do but then I'm weak....

   Im trying day to day.. I made it thru the first 24 hours... no on the second... Im not doing clear liquids.. im doing full tomm.. protein drinks and yogurt smoothies and soup.. I cant do clear and work.. no way...  FIRST 30 HOURS ARE DONE!!!! WOOhooo....
   I really think it is stress from the storm damage and the clean up.... It has to be..  a year ago I'd be eating my way thru the stress.. Maybe I needed this fill to fall at this time... hmmmm
 night ladies!!! thanks for the support!

Hang in there Dawn. You have come so far to slight yourself now.

Maybe there are some other liquid options out there that can give you more variety????? 
Not sure what type of clear liquids you can have........................I used to make punch out of SF kool-aid (cherry) and light OJ or Pineapple juice...about 1/2 and 1/2 and serve over ice.......garni**** with a little umbrella.............if you make your drinks pretty then they will taste better :)
Just a thought.

Good Luck.

You'll do it Dawn.  When we cry out for help we want to succeed.  I have faith you will do what you gotta do to get where you gotta go.

Dawn, hon, I know you are about to loose your mind with all the clean-up and everything, but just hang in there.  I don't know how the fills are with every dr., and I personally don't know the way it feels, just hear what the rest of you all tell me.  So here is the way I look at it........you can take this with a grain of sugar, or salt.........either way.

If you have made it this far, and you have by strength and perseverence, you can do it.  If you choose to do it day by day, then so be it.......only your body will be the true judge of how your fill took.  If Dr. Shina makes you start completely over after each fill, its  no wonder why it took you so long to get another fill! LOL I don't blame you at all! I hated the 2 weeks liquids!!!  Talk about a pain in the ARSE when I was trying to work! Needless to say, my supervisors didn't like it either! haha!

Good luck, and stay strong........you will do just fine!

Wow, I had no idea that there was a chance I had to do this liquid thing again with each fill.  I have Geller and he never mentioned it, I hope it is just Shina.  I am one week post-op and surviving, but I wouldn't want to do it anytime too soon again:)  Hang in there!
