So I'm on day 5 pre op. Doing well although I think my body is in shock. I dreamt last night I had eaten breaded deep fried fish and was standing at a dessert table thinking what had the least calories and knowing in my head I was cheating. I felt soooo guilty. Anyway, when I woke up I was so happy that is was a dream and I haven't fallen off once. Got on the scale and I'm 9 pounds down in 5 days. Wow no fried food or any dessert can make me feel that good! Just thought I'd share. Happy Friday:)

I haven't started my ore op diet yet....what are you all mostly having and what is satisfying you?

everyone's is different from what I've been reading. Mine is 800-1000 cal a day.

70-90 g Protein with shakes being Breakfast and lunch with a Protein Bar in the middle for snack. dinner is 3-4 oz of lean meat and half cup of starch and veggies. Totaling no more than 350 cal at dinner. I'll be a week in on Monday tomorrow with one more week to go. Band date is the 9th. I've lost 10 pounds since Monday. Crazy! First few days were very hard but it gets easier and now I'm used to it. It's just routine and I love seeing the scale go down. Don't get me wrong I still have tough moments like today At Nascar race. Corn dogs funnel cakes nachos cheeseburger fries. U name it.... I had my Protein Shakes before I left and Protein Bar while my bf was eating junk. Very hard but I made it. Good luck!

      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.
