Isn't it obvious? Sugar is empty calories. Sugar will spike your insulin causing you to be much hungrier than you would be normally. Sugar is one of the most evil foods ever invented by man. It's just bad for you.

I didn't realise that sugar had been invented by man! I thought it was something that grew naturally and that man only perfected the refining process and then decided it tastes so good he should add it to everything else!

Sorry girls, but sugar in popsicles and jello(the food topic) comes from sucrose which is refined by man(Elcee). And yes, it was an invented process and does not grow naturally. So, I stand by my statement that man invented/developed sugar and is in the top 3 contributors to obesity. The other 2 being refined flour and cheetos(OMG, I miss cheetos) :rolleyes:

Why do we need to eat sf Jello and popsicles then regular

Why not? No need to add sugar to your diet.... It's unnecessary.

Not in my experience.... If it hurts when you drink anything it's too tight.

      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.
