Hangry

Welcome! We can be newbies together. Good luck with your liquids also. I know what you're going through! I'm a day after you for surgery.

Thank you. Good luck too with the liquids. You seem very strong minded. Keep me updated and I'll do the same.

Yes please do. Day 4 and I'm going strong. Now I'm dealing with somberness. Not depressed, just a little down now that I've had to part ways with my friend food.

Hi it's day 5 and I'm m feeling the same way. I believe it?s normal emotions. I had my pre op doctors appointment yesterday and they was telling me all the things I couldn?t have and I got overwhelmed but not discouraged. But I definitely understand.

Yes I was telling my Mom, who is an RNY-er that I feel like I'll never enjoy functions again because I can't eat. Her reply, "oh believe me you'll be able to eat again". I guess it's just finding new ways to cope.

Keep going, Shannon!!! You can do this!

Hey Shannon, I'm feeling the same very hangry. It's day 2 for me for my pre-op diet. And I'm not loving this diet at all! I found some newfound satisfaction in eating snowpeas and also broth soups that are super tasty which i made with lots of garlic for flavour. Other than that coffee coffee coffee lol. This is what keeps me hoinh so far... but not easy missing my popcorn and sushi!

What do u find satisfying in this diet? What do you eat other than shakes?
