I am having a really hard time today!  I have been on the Liquid Diet since Monday and here it is Saturday ... I have another week on Liquids before surgery and I am so frickin hungry!  I want food and I know I can't eat solids. My kids just fixed pizza and it's one of my favorite things to eat and it smells so good but I drank my protein shake. This has actually been the first day that I have actually had a hard time dealing with the just liquids and it's a bit overwhelming and I just wanna cry :(

Teresa, resolve that you will make it through this.  You are stronger than a lil ol pizza.  I applaud that you stuck with your shake. 

I was glad that my hubby became self sufficient during my liquid diet.  Of course that meant that he survived on sandwiches and fast food.  His choice of course.   Hugs

 Teresa,
I know what you're going through. I live w/ my sister and of course, she was free to eat what she wanted. You were very good to yourself by sticking to the liquids. It will help during surgery.    Mag

Thanks yall :) Today has been better. I told my kids today " if I can't eat it - I am not cookin it " lol they looked at me funny but they are very capable of cookin on their own, plus my mom is here to cook for them too LOL I taught them at an early age how to cook. My youngest son who is almost 15 did the sweetest thing... He said I am not going to eat infront of you - made my heart smile but I told him just because I couldn't have it didn't mean he couldn't. He did finally eat after I left the kitchen. He is so sweet.

The incision from the filter is healing.. it's still sore and tender and bruised and just a small amount of bleeding still but that is because my platelets are low and it's not wanting to close up - I told them they shoulda stitched it  **shrugs*
