I would like to suggest the Lipton Cup-a-soup Cream of chicken soup/broth. I was looking through older threads trying to get more variety, and saw an old timer suggest the Soup. It is like a broth, but has a very delicious taste. I am going to buy an unflavored Protein to mix with it too, since it has barely any.

I will add it to the list-Thanks for the suggestions

I'm from southern California, you?

Yes, I'm EXTREMELY nervous. Nervous about the actual surgery itself and not losing weight after surgery. I'm getting really excited though and can't wait to lose the weight. You?

Are you required to do a pre-op diet?

I'm not on the diet yet. Two weeks before I have to start a liquid diet. I've been experimenting with different shakes, and so far they don't taste too bad. Clear Liquids only the day before surgery.

I still need to go shopping for a few items for post surgery, like gas x and boxed Jello so I can make Protein jello. I wanted to make a heating pad with flax seed but will have to settle for rice or corn ( flax is too expensive around here ) but that's ok because the rice and corn still absorb heat well. Are you ready? How much time off of work are you getting?

      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.
