I liked Lipton noodle Soup broth. I'd filter out most of the noodles and sip the broth. I also sipped broth from some Campbell's and Progresso Soups. I like Mexican flavors so I sipped on the tortilla veggie or chicken broths. I also like egg drop Soup. In the Asian food isle at King Soopers(Krogers) is an egg drop soup packet that is delicious. I added some Sriracha and a dash of soy sauce to the mix.

Protein drinks made up most of the remaining meals. I was only on liquids for 4 days so I didn't suffer too long.

Take two popsicles put in cup, put cup in microwave for about 15-30 seconds, take sticks out of popsicles, take spoon and mush together melted popsicle, now you have a slushie, i lived on these and its a good way to get 6 ounces in. Plus i liked that you eat with a spoon so its tricking you to think your "eating" im 2 1/2 weeks post op and still eat this

      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.
