Are you getting enough Vitamins and Water? I like the Crystal Light energy mix - add a little unflavored Protein for a nice boost! I have even heard some people say they had to up their calories for a day or two to get back some energy. I hope you feel better soon!!

:cheer2:

Thanks 4 your response.

Day Dreamer what a GREAT idea. I'm gonna try the unflavored Protein in my crystal light. I LOVE MY CRYSTAL LIGHT!

DeAkay, You just might be right about the time of day I'm trying to exercise. I'd have to get up at least an hour earlier, however once it's done (it's done)!!

These are 2 really good ideas and I plan on giving them a shot. Thanks guys:)

I've also heard/read people mention vitamine B12. You can get it liquid. It can boost your energy and conversely, decreased energy if you're low. Check with your nutritionist. Good luck! You can do 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.
