Today is the day I start my pre op shakes. Drinking first one and tastes ok. I might not be saying that in a few days.

LOL- you can do it!! The first three days were the worst- I was hungry all the time and had headaches- it got a lot better after that!

If you have the pre-made kind (vanilla preferably) add a few frozen strawberries or any kind of frozen fruit you may like and you'll have yourself a smoothie. Very delicious and very filling :) i can go 5 plus hours before another shake :) good luck!! Today is my last day of pre-op, surgery is tomorrow!! Yay!

For Breakfast I use the strawberry creme muscle milk and add two fresh strawberries to it, or the chocolate with a banana in it. Really makes a difference!

It's hard for sure the first couple days, I'm on day 6. I had severe headaches the first 2 days. I did talk to the nurse at the office and she told me to add scrambled eggs to my day, just once a day if I needed it. It's helped.

      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?

      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.
