Incisions are healing and feeling better all the time, but having been on clear liquids for several days now, I am very hungry and even more tired and weak. This is part of the process, so I'm not alarmed or surprised. Just tired and hungry. I am finding it takes me 10-15 minutes to drink 8 ounces of anything, including water. And then I need a couple hours before I can even think of drinking anything else. Makes it tough to get anywhere near the amount of water or protein I need. Still, I'm smiling because I've lost 22 pounds. And toughing it out the next 9 days on liquids and then soft foods I'll bet I'm down another 15 pounds or so. That's the upside to feeling like this.
My mind is as strong and committed as it could possibly be. Just sharing the experience. From reading other blogs I could very well be feeling worse before I feel better. So be it, it's worth it.
