Mina~. It was your post! I couldn't remember where I read it. Although my tea is another brand, I made sure it was Decaf. I did buy several other herbal celestial seasonings flavors. They do help with the cravings. I figured I may like the warmth and it can help me pass postop gas. Thanks for checking in on us. Our final week countdown has begun.

Haha!! Guess what? The peppermint Tea that I use every day is Bigelow Peppermint Decaff Tea!!!!! I told my son to pick me up the CS tea and he brought it to me and I said no that's not it, it's in a blue package lol. I laughed so darn hard because he brought it and said it's Bigelow lol. Ah, I really promoted the heck out of the wrong tea. Still, to this day it's my saving grace, it's the one thing that calms my tummy when it hurts.

      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.
