I have been doing the pre-op for a few weeks or so. Protein shakes for Breakfast and lunch, and a light dinner. About a week ago I went full Protein Shakes with a snack or so, and yesterday and today the lovely Clear liquids. I cheated a bit on Sunday and ate because I catered a wedding and was literally running up and down stairs for 14 hours...I would have never survived without food! Luckily it was all vegan!! How has it been going for you??

@Megannadine, I just inboxed you my cell, text me when you get it.

If you guys that's having surgery this month has not read the prayer I post, it's very comforting and encouraging.

If anyone else would like to text each other doing this process inbox me your cell and I'll text you mines.

May the peace of God be with you all.

Gina

      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.
