Isn't it strange how we all mentally experienced the same feelings? I cried on day 3-4. Maybe its the mental addition to food we had to get over. I even told my hubby i felt fobic inside

I think you are right about the mental addiction to foods. And how we all feel the same at one time or another. Thats why this site has been so helpful to me. I got banded yesterday. Pretty sore bc i also had 2 hernia repairs. But overall its not as bad as i anticipated

Good luck joy! I agree that this forum helps. I have learned so much. My doc is a surgeon, never said much about what to eat, when to eat or even how much. I have learned every thing here

      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.
