WOW! You started mushies so soon! I bet you are pleased! I have another week yet before I do, but I really don't mind the liquid diet at all.

The most important thing, they tell me, is to avoid vomiting, or lifting anything heavy. I am dying to get to the gym and do some weight work, but the doc says not yet, I should not do anything that involves the core muscles.

You will feel better and better as each day goes by...and as you fold up and give away those "fat clothes", lolol. Good luck! Teeli:thumbup:

Thanks Diana...I am doing well , feel great and if I wasn`t still a little sore I wouldn`t even know I had been fitted with a band...

At the moment I am sure the band is not doing a thing its my will power and determination that is keeping me sticking to the dietitians menue (plus I don`t want to put any strain on my tummy , I want the stitches to heal up and have no problems)...

I hope after I have a fill (6 weeks) I can feel the band helping me , because if I could have done this myself on just will power I would have , many years ago ..I need this band to Help... :smile2:

Have a Good weekend all ...

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
