1 WEEK POST-OP, HELP!
Hi all I was sleeved on 1/15/2014 and I'm so happy it's finally done. I am still on my clear liquid diet and having some trouble getting in all the protein. Just like you all said "You will get full fast." and Yes I do. Also I'm so bored with the Jello, broth, and Ice Pops. I have another 6 days to go on this phase of my program, is there anything else you guys can suggest?
Thanks,
Tab
I hate to give the worst answer possible, but this is the part of the journey that you just have to grit your teeth and deal with until it passes. I mixed up the broths by combining different ones (I liked chicken broth with a little liquid from a can of french onion soup, and a tiny bit of hot sauce -just be careful not to give yourself heartburn with too much heat!). This phase sucks. There's just no getting around it. Sorry hon! Only 6 more days! In the grand scheme of the rest of your life with your sleeve, this is NOTHING!! You can do it!
