Don't be a chicken, eat a chicken. Cut a small portion of it up into dice sized chunks. Eat one at a time. Chew the crap out of it. Go slow. You're Helen Keller with a fork K? It'll be OK.

I wouldn't be scared. Your swelling is down and the band is wide open. You'll be fine, Soup is always a good menu choice if you are

My wife and I tend to share appetizers and Entrees, and that helps in a few ways: smaller portions for each of us, smaller bites (save some for me!), and more variety. Depending on where you go, portions are often way too big eating out. If you use the buddy system, it can really help! :)

      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.
