Second day of clears....
....and if I smell another SF jello I might hurl. I am SO hungry...I know that everyone posts that it gets easier after the second day, but DANG the second day SUCKS! I have a headache and I feel like I'm going to vomit. I thought getting in protein (clear protein) would help with all this miserableness, but I guess I'm S.O.L! I just want this to be done already and I have 4 more day AFTER today to go. I plan to go to bed as early as possible....perhaps that will help it move faster.
Just keep drinking...constantly.... broth, SF jello etc included.......get Gatorade and a big one for dealing with headaches etc for me was apple juice. I didn't have to do SF stuff preop just clear liquids of any sort. Hang in there it will be worth it...I'm 10days out and down 17 lbs from the day I began my clear liquids (which was only 3 days). ....and 11 lbs since surgery.
I know what you mean I got tired of the SF jello quick too. When I was able to eat in the hospital and they gave it to me I ate 2 spoons b4 I was sick of it and just stuck to drinking fluids. Don't worry you will be tired after surgery so that will help. I am 8 weeks out and my menu is running low. A lot of stuff I didn't eat b4 surgery and now I am afraid to try it so it limits me. But it gets better.
You think you hate this stuff now, just wait!!!!!!
Hahaahahaha Soooo true!
Honestly I feel bad for those that have to do clear liquids before surgery. I only had to do it the day before.
I was on a low carb diet and the first week I was sicker then a dog. It was awful.
Just FYI - after surgery your gonna feel like crap - it's not like once you get this done you will feel 100% better right away but try to focus on the big picture and the future that awaits you!
This side is AMAZING!
