Much better today, can actually swallow. I've managed 1.5l of nas and some homemade lollies, a protein shake. Some soup and just going to try some weetabix ?
How are you feeling? Xx

Good to read you are feeling a bit better now from the tonsillitis - what bad luck - its not like you are already trying to recover from major surgery or anything!
I cant believe we are at 3 weeks post surgery this week - in some ways it seems like forever away - I've already almost forgotten what the LRD was like and how I wanted to eat my arm! I've also forgotten just how dreadful I felt post op days 1-3. The body and mind are very clever at making us glaze over the stress
Hope you go from strength to strength Kayy

Tonsillitis has cleared up now but I'm really struggling otherwise with fluids and food, no pain but feeling full so easy means I'm just not getting enough in. No hunger or appetite at all finding this a lot harder than I thought I would, feel selfish for saying it but I really miss food!

Good to hear your throat is better. Are you finding cold drink difficult? I do to some extent so I drink unsweetened fruit tea all day. I have a good insulated drinking flask and sip from that constantly. I think it is weird that I am not feeling hungry but thinking about food all the time. Its not easy is it hun. I hope you can find a way to increase your fluids, might be worth a wee chat with your provider. Take care love x

I can relate - I have realIsed that 3 meals a day when so strongly restricted isn't going to do the trick and that it might be (for now) 6 tiny meals are the way to spread the 600-800 calories out over the day so that energy and nutrition a levels are maintained whilst still enjoying weight loss ?
I am at a hotel this week as I am delivering training and the fixed meal times have proved very challenging. I can't eat soup, main course and dessert so now take the banana or yoghurt etc and try and eat in mid meal times!
I am so pleased to read you're better after the strep throat
Take care xx

Been a while since I've been on here!! Still enjoying this journey, can now manage to fit in 3 super small high protein meals and roughly 2.5 litres of nas squash or water a day. I have so much more energy these days it's amazing!! I have lost a total of 69.9lb since my lrd

Congratulations Kayy, sounds like it's all working out well. I'm moving on to purees tomorrow and still can't imagine what restriction feels like. I hope it happens soon..
Do you feel the restriction when you drink fluids? I felt it very early on but you most certainly will once you move onto softs and solids. The only other advice I can offer is try not to get to hung up on weight loss at this stage, I almost drove myself crazy in the first few weeks because the scales hardly moved but it was probably down to swelling etc. I'm going to head over to your diary once my little cherubs/monsters are in bed and have a catch up xx
