I know how your feeling, mine is in 16 days! So exciting!

What kind of pre-op diet do they have you on?

Wish you the best! :)

Yes, Im a pre-op diet as well, I started a little early because im so antsy about the surgery. But I'm on a low-carb (under 40mg a day) diet. & for day 13 & 14 very light meals, but I'm thinking its just best to go all liquid for those days.

Usually diets are so hard for me but thinking of the outcome of this whole situation really keeps you motivated!

Any suggestion of protien drinks?

I'm hard w diets as well, I did a juice fast a few months ago and lost 15 lbs in 13 days.. I may fast the last 5 days.. I like the Premier Protein drinks.. But I have been using the costco brand weight loss shakes as well.. They are delicious. The premier Protein is high in protein so I'll use those after surgery. Are you getting sleeved in the states?

      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.
