Hey Girl I Believe we are the same date. But I'm not sure what you mean. I just follow the guide lines in my booklet and in between meals I sip on Clear Liquids

Congrats. Hope your doing well besides the liquids. Your band maybe too tight in hear that's one thing. I also tried sport drinks sugar free. We should be on pure liquids now but my menu is so short. Only says far free puding yogurt cream Soups very nasty in cans cream of wheat farina. Skim milk that's about it for the next 10 days. I hope I can survive.

Are you taking your vitamins/minerals each day. This is important becuase you are healing, maybe bloated, some possibility of gas inside. It takes time to heal but sip your Water. My doctor said I could use crystal light flavors during this stage. I did and put the drink in the freezer and make a slushy smoothie out of the crystal light. Almost as good as SF popsicles.

Best wishes

I had my surgery on Monday and I can honestly say today is the first day that the SO2 gas pain is not adding to my discomfort.

Are you being careful to just take small sips?

      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.
