Please tell me it gets easier...

I was so desperate today I licked my fingers after I served my daughter a handful of takis.

I fondled a bag of Costco dinner rolls after surgery. I wanted them so bad but couldn't have them! This is the only place I can say that and not be judged as mental!

I’m 2.5 weeks post op RNY. I’ve found it extremely challenging the last couple of days. I’m home with my family who are eating non stop. I have a nose like a blood hound and can smell everything throughout the house. We are isolating because of covid. I’m hoping things get easier when I can eat soft foods in 1.5 weeks. I’ve been on fluids for 3 weeks pre-op and 2.5 weeks post op. I can’t work out for another 3.5 weeks outside of walking. I feel all I’m doing is drinking and am no where near to getting in 1.5 litres of water. Is it normal to have buyers remorse so early post-op? I’m usually very positive and I can’t believe how discouraged I feel.

It will get better!! Don't give up before the Miracles happen and you are not alone!!!

Hang in there. Remember the big goal.

I’m in the same position as you are! 2 weeks post op on Monday and I want savory foods. I haven’t done any soup purées yet bc it just sounds gross! I’ve had sugar free popsicles, sf jello, and protein shakes. I was so desperate today I licked my fingers after I served my daughter a handful of takis. But otherwise I’ve just tough it out.

I recommend simmering broccoli, mushroom, onion, and artichoke hearts or bell peppers in some chicken broth seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Once cooled, puree in a blender and it tastes great

I had my husband cook red beans and then I put in blender. It was like red bean soup. So tasty.

It's a tough stage to be in Angel but you'll get there.

Thank you!
