We've all been through it and, you're right, it's awful. That'll teach us to eat, huh?

You got that right! I ate my 1 1/2 oz of tuna and had some bits of fruit on the side...I knew I should have left that last bite in the bowl..I could have had it later..oh well..my RD said EVERYBODY will do it once and once is about all it will take...LOL!

Live and learn. Can't get much worse than that 'rock' feeling. When I did it, it felt more like a boulder!

tuna is the first thing I had trouble with. I've not had the courage to try it since that first time, probably three months ago! I do think it was an eating too fast & not chewing well enough for me but still... that feeling is hard to get past!

      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.
