It might not be advised but very few if any don't have there pig-out time before surgery. It is almost a given. My only problem is figuring out and writing down the most important foods that I need to have so I get them in rolleyes.gif

I just started my 2 week before surgury mines on the 9th i hate prottein shakes it worried me to death yesterday i went to GNC i said what can i do i dont like the way they smell are after taste she said let me make you a sample of this IT IS AMPLIFY Cookies AND CREAM OH MY GOSH I LOVE IT. I CANT BELIEVE THIS SHE SAID CHOCALATE MINT IS GREAT TO. MY DAUGHTER GOT ANOTHER ONE ON SALE IT WAS YUK TRY THIS BELIEVE ME IF I LIKE IT YOU WILL LET ME KNOW astromom2005@aol.com this is my doctor where do yuou live?

I'm in Atlanta. I emailed my nutritionist today asking about the Protein shakes and she still said just the two kinds that I just can't stand. If I have to suck it up and drink it I will. Eventually I think I can switch to a different one but for postop they want a certain kid. I am going to have to find that one though!!! Thanks!

      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.
