Hi, no I don't mind. I started on Dec 6th. I did 5 days of 4 a day Meal Replacement. shakes. Then and since I have a shake in am asmall Protein snack mid am I usually don't have this. Then a frozen box under 350 calories. A afternoon protein snack. I have soynuts or Protein Shake. Then another box for supper. I try to match my box with what I cook for supper for my family. It helps noy to feel so left out. Then a Protein Bar for snack. I only eat it if I'm really hungry. We have wing bite on Friday bites. So I found a calories counter app. And found what I can eat under 400 calories. I also walk a lot. Not everyday but atleast every other day. It was hard at first. But its so worth it when the scale starts dropping. If I can do it everyone can. Just keep your eye on the pride. Oh, lots and lots of Water. Get Mois they are no calories water additive. They help flavor the water so its not so boring.good luck and if u have any questions just message me.

      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.
