Started the liquid today, wanted to throw up. I am not liking the shakes at all. worse part this is all I am on and a cup of veggies. Gotta pull through! 2 weeks to go!

Can you try other shakes? I am on Unjury and LOVE them. Maybe a better tasting shake would help. JMHO...

Anyone using ultramet shakes? They are by champion nutrition. I start them on the 10th. I hope they don't taste too horrific! LOL

Optifast is the ones my doctor advised me to take. Yesterday, day 2, was the worse. I had such a Migraine. Slept for 12 hours. Hope this won't be the norm for the next couple of weeks. I diluted the shakes a bit more as they were gritty and texture not so good. They are going down a bit better, but still hungry. (which i am sure is normal for all). Just keeping at it, worth it in the end. :D

Hope everyone is doing well. I'm two days post op now and feeling good. My surgery was Thursday at 11:30 I left the hospital about 5. Yesterday I slept most if the day just taking in Water as I felt nauseous. After getting medicine for nausea I feel so much better today. I have gotten in an Optifast and some chicken broth. I have pain when getting from sitting other than that the pain is not bad at a all. I have not taken pain meds since last night. So just wanted to update so new people heading in to surgery will know its not bad at all. The way I feel now I feel I'll be fine to go work on Monday;)

Good luck banders hope your surgery goes well!

      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.
