I know it may sound like a small thing to many but I made it through a Saturday out with my mom while on my liquid diet.

Every Saturday she and I go shopping and usually have lunch out. I have an 18 month old we take with us.

I am 5 days into my pre op diet and we went shopping today. We stopped at McDonald's for her and my son to get a bite to eat.

I got myself a diet soda which I am able to have during the diet. I love McDonald's grilled snack wraps. They sat and ate and I survived. I have to say it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. Maybe I am finally getting the mind part of this down.

I hope so I am so worried about after surgery!

Fantastic! Go you! It's a struggle for me all the time as eating out has always been such a huge part of my weekly entertainment. popcorn at movies, fast food lunches at work, romantic dinners out with my husband, drinks and apps with friends etc. We just have to keep our eyes on the prize and it'll all be worth 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.
