I'm june 7 th and I'm on day 6 of my three week liquid diet. I am starting at 351lbs but have probably lost around 10 lbs this week. It has been really hard for me. I have been in mourning for my old lifestyle. I am feeling a little better everyday. I spend a ton of time on this site and it has helped a lot. I get on when ever I am super depressed about everything. I would live to have a fellow June buddy to go through this with. :)

I'll be ur June buddy. Don't quite

Hi all! I'm fairly new here. I haven't posted yet but I read a lot of the threads. It's nice to be among people who are supportive of your journey because they are on the same one!

Anyway, I got a call from my surgeon's office this morning, my surgery is scheduled for June 26. I'm so ready for this!!!

Randolph - I am doing the south beach diet for my pre-op. It shows I can have sugar free Jello, or sugar free hard candy. Not sure if that will work for you, but it helps the sugar craving some what. I have my sugery on the 16th.

      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.
