The liquid diet isnt so bad! The first day sucked and Im more tired then usual, but I love to sleep anyways, so I use it as an excuse lol

The only day im having a problem with it is today. My family is having a BBQ for mothers day and im kinda down in the dumps that I cant go eat. I keep telling myself a piece of chicken and little bit of salad cant ruin it too much, but I have oppted out of the BBQ and just had over there after dinner is threw.

Oh yikes! What a bad time to start... but like you said just stick with the things you are allowed and you should be fine. Might be a little bitchy.... but you will get threw it!

What does your pre-op diet consist of?

      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.
