Yuck to Protien

I am having such a hard time getting my protein in. It was hard before surgery but I thought because I could add different things to it now it would be easier. No such luck. My friends who haven't had WLS say chug it. I so wish I could. One glass done and over with. I miss drinking water that way too. I used to drink 8 oz at a time. I really think alot of it is in my head now. It hurt to take sips in the beginning and I kinda hold everything in my mouth and let it slowly go down. Not good when you hate protein shakes. Any suggestions on how to get over myself. I need the protein my energy has really crashed and I hate being so tired.

Head Hunger or Jelousy

So it been 11 days. No I'm not really hungry. Actually nothing TASTES very good. That being said. My wonderful husband has been doing all the planning and cooking. He decide it was time everyone started eating healthier. Tonight he made a beef stir fry. I am hiding in my room. It smells absolutely wonderful. I Love stir fry, I love vegetables all kinds. Eating protien first will be strange for me. He's always been a pretty good cook, just not adventurous. Now he's trying lots of new things. I have one child that would love to gain weight . He's about 5'7" and 120lbs. My other child is going to have to watch his weight. He is 5'1" and weights 105lbs. My husband is a pretty big guy. He needs to loose about 40lbs. We have decided while I change my eating habits its time to create better habits for everyone. Wish us luck. Oh and it is definitely Jelousy , I'm really not craving anything.
