Yes, had it yesterday, and so far im feeling just fine. No gas like allot of people were saying. No nausea either, of course I have a patch behind my ear and I am wearing the Reletex wrist band therapy, used for post operative nausea. I had to go to the bank this morning and to Wally world for chewy Vitamins, but I was in and right out. (don't know how if forgot them). Walked around outside a bit too. Hope I have not ever done.

Glad you are feeling much better. Have been definitely moving a little slower. Last night my growling stomach woke me up. Today, however, I am craving Gummy bears! Do they make sugar-free gummy bears? :huh: I have had chicken broth, plenty of Water, G2, a popsicle and diluted apple juice along with my soft chew Vitamins. Don't know how to turn the cravings off today.

      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.
