Has anyone ever used Pre-op dieting as a defense in a court of law? If I were on a jury, I'd acquit them. I am so grouchy, tearful and downright mean!

I feel your pain. A week and two days of liquid. I know how you feel. I found that Panara Bread's French onion Soup is good.

Remember there have been so many others who have gone before you, who felt just like you do, I am one of them. I was so frickin miserable. But I got through it, and you can too. Be nice to yourself, protect yourself the best you can. You will be so proud when you get through it. It really is a huge accomplishment. Hang in there.....and cross those days off one by one.

You can do it! I bought 3 new dresses yesterday, size 14! Do you know how many years it has been since I've done that. Wore a new pair of capris last week, size 12! It is worth it.

I'm right with you! I'm on Day 9 right now - 5 more days until surgery. I'm SO glad I'm on the downhill slide of the pre-op diet, but it seems like it's getting harder the closer I get to surgery!

Hang in there! We can do this!!

      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.
