Once you start your fills the hunger will subside. Stick with the diet recommended by the nutritionist! I eat my Protein first for all three meals, and I find that the protein was the key for my losing weight and staying on course. Congrats on your success and willpower!

Well, had my surgery today! I am feeling remarkably well, and I'm so surprised & thankful. My prize - will be NO MORE GRANNY PANTIES :) My aunt, she sent me a cute note today - she said she's going to be the one to take me to Victoria's Secret - I can't wait. Then the other prize, health, it will reduce my risk for a cancer recurrence, and overall - self confidence boost! :) Hugs to all!

      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.
