okay here is a question for all of you..... when making your Protein Shakes that you add stuff to like sugar free pudding, do you make the box kind of pudding or do you use already made pudding? Sorry I haven't experimented with shakes yet, just mix my powder with milk or I buy the pre made shakes. But really want to try to make my own

Barbm1366, I use a Protein powder to make my drinks. If you use SF almond milk instead of Water, you get a richer drink plus a gram of protein and Fiber for only 30 calories. Then you add 1-2 tablespoons of dry FF SF Jello pudding mix to make it more flavorful and thick. I also add frozen berries or other fruit and frozen spinach just to increase Vitamins. And finally, I add a packet of splenda because I want the extra sweetness. HTH!

Thats sounds awesome! I will have to try that next week. Do you have any other recipes? Maybe we could swap :-)

There is a previous post called Protein shakes (a must see) that has quite a few recipes for delicious shakes using sf pudding mixes and other basic ingredients. I have tried almost all of them and they are absolutely delicious.

Can someone explain to me again, what's the purpose of being a full liquid diet for so long. I am on a full liquid diet for 3 weeks, post op, so I have 2 more weeks to go. I am sure my doctor explained this, but I am curious to hear from you all.

It's mostly (from what I remember) because you are quite swollen on the inside from surgery. You really haven't learned to eat as a bander (or with the sleeve) and it'll be very bad if you get stuck and have to throw up so soon after surgery. I had two weeks of liquids followed by two weeks of mushies and then could progress to solids. Every doc is different though. You don't want to rip your stitches right now, well ever, but I think right now with it being so new and not scarred over is worse.

      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.
