I signed up to check it out. You can go to the website and look a little. Better to look from the inside. Sign up, give me your "name", I'll requests you and walk you through it from there. If you don't like it just cancel. Its like LBT...no strings attached.

Hm? I've never been told that it isn't bad for me so I eat a spoon of it about twice a week if I need a snack at night. I've never tried Hummus, can you buy it?

I thought Peanut Butter was bad too. I've learned from LBT and MFP that there are many roads to the same destination and everyone has a different map. I love Peanut Butter (crunchy) and now I will try it, in moderation. Ive been snacking on cashews a little.

Yes you can. I get mine at trader joes but a lot of stores carry it in the deli department. It's just puréed chickpeas and other seasoning really yummy and high in Protein.

      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.
