When i am on the liquids after I fill I live on Popsicles and lots of hot tea. Maybe do something that keeps you away from the kitchen area. Also, you can't eat with wet nails. Sometimes I use top coat every night.

My doctor has me on 3 days of liquids then 3 days of mushies before I get to eat real food.< /p>

You will have to go through what all of us bandsters had to go through, which is called "bandster hell" it is for the first 3 months or until u have the right amount of Fluid in your band. U will make it. It's all worth it in the end.

I usually get a smoothie with the Protein in it which helps a lot, taste good, and has nutrients from the fresh fruit and veggies!

I'm in the exact same position. Literally could hear my stomach rumbling whilst I was trying to sleep. It's not gonna be fun for the next few days but at least we're in it together! Good luck xxx

I too drink the Boost High Protein... They are a TREAT frozen, or semi-frozen.

There's one thing I don't get, if you're hungry to the point where your stomach is grumbling, why don't you just EAT?!! If you're at that point, your body is telling you it's running on empty... Drink a shake!!

Try a different shake (although I really like Boost) that has MORE Protein. I really like Muscle Milk, it's way more expensive, but you don't have to drink them exclusively, just squeeze one in during the time of day you get hungry the most.

      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.
