help

It has been 7 days since my surgery.  I am drinking the water and protein shake just like instructed.  This is hard.  Everyone is eating and I am water logged.  I have 6 more days before I can start on puree.  Am I going to make it?

 

Of course u will!!!  JUST KEEP YOUR EYE ON THE PRIZE!!!! its not an easy task, but when you get on the scale and you've lost 30 pounds... you'll forget all about this hard spot!!!!

 

You are doing great. Its hard at first but you can do it....                                                                      Sharon

Every day get's easier... you are doing GREAT!! And everyone questions their decision about having this surgery at least once through out the process...

YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!  This is the hardest part of the whole thing!!!!!  Hang in there......it will all be worth it!!!!!!!! Melissa

I came out of surgery thinking, "put my stomach back I don't want to do this anymore!"  You are doing great and you are not alone. Hang in there, it gets better !

when i was in your situation.. i had a breakdown.. and finally came to terms with "I have to do this. I have to Eat to live now instead of live to eat. for once in my life , i cannot fail this change of life. I have taken this step to rearrange my intestines, and I did it for ME.. So suck it up and lets do it!!!" but if you read my profile story you will see it was not easy!!! i had real bad food withdrawal. it will get easier.. enjoy this phase because you will lose SOOO Much weight now!!! Youre doing fantastic! :)

Ok everyone I am feeling better!!!! I got my second burst.  I can do this.
