if you have found a powdered Protein drink that you like, or at least tolerate, lol - you could take that on the plane and get either Water or milk from the flight attendents to mix it. I always bring my own travel cup.

I also use Atkins bars - they are more filling than you might expect.

good luck!

Well, I haven't had the oppotrunity to travel yet but soon I'm going to Texas for my neices wedding. I'm really just dropping a note to say good for you !!! You had a rough start and I'm so glad to see that your feeling good enough to be out and about...... winning loads of money etc...

I'm a little nervous about this wedding. My family doesn't know about surgery and I don't want them to. I will be there for 3 days... hopefully it will be too chaotic for my mother or sisters to notice I don't really eat any more.

I am vactioning in las vegas. Iam doing good I have been able to find things to eat and find Protein supplements. I am still nervous about complications but the facts are I'm doing great. Because I went my GP last week and my blood work was great. The mind can play stupids tricks on you if you let it.

      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.
