Sorry to hear that u are having such a hard time with the pre-op diet.. I did not say its been easy by any stretch..I have had really bad acid reflux which I have been taking meds for.. But the trade off for the hunger and reflux.. I went for weigh in .. This is day 6 of opti.. And I lost 8 1/2 pounds.. So I am ecstatic.. I hope that things get better for you both.. God Bless!

Surgery was 2/9, so i'm 2 days out. The gas pain in my belly is pretty killer, but other than tha, i guess i'm okay. Tired, and ready to go home, but hubby brought the ipad over last night, so i thought i should check in. Pardon any typos, my eyes and fingers aren't matching up too well...i think it's the drigs ;) but i'm sleeved--yay!

      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.
