What all can u have right now? Just Protein Shakes?

I'm fortunate it enough to not feel real hunger still. And when I do it only takes a very small portion to satisfy it. It's actually not good cause I know I need to eat more. The Protein just killed me though! I started creamy Soups and mushiness today and so far I'm feeling better and still not hungry. I have fixing supper for my hubby too it's rough. I just want to taste everything. Thankfully I'm too scared. Lol hang in there. Hopefully it's not too much longer til u can have some consistency in your meals so they will stay with u longer!

I want it and I want it bad...its just harder than ever...especially cause I'm home with my 1 year old all day so I'm used to eating what he eats...and the feeling of being hungry sucks...I get cranky.. and i swear these Protein Shakes are doing nothing for me...and they have 50g of Protein per serving...

Don't give in. Try to drink Water in between. My hubby also had the hunger pains and he caved one day. Causes him a lot of pain for the day. Needless to say he went back to what he was doing cause it wasn't worth it. Take a walk watch tv read a book. Do anything to distract you!

      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.
