Unjury Unflavored powder

Things to get:

small silverwear (a trip to Ikea is instore because they have kid silverware that looks like normal stuff)

small plates and bowls

small storage containers

a blender (looking at the Ninja kitchen system)

and then all the lovely Jello, crystal light, mio, soup, etc for my liquid diet :)

I'm super excited! And I hope everything goes smooth with the insurance! I have UHC

Hi, This is Angela. Just got my surgery date for the Sleeve the other day for Aug 15 with Dr. Hoehn in Lenexa, KS. I'm so excited for all of us and wish I would have known about this surgery years ago! Now I'm going to begin making my shopping list. Dr.'s nurse said I should only need to fast for 1 week due to being a lower BMI. I'll find out more during next appt on 23rd.

      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.
