It's very frustrating and I'm so sad about your cheat. I work with a girl who had the same procedure and she told me to be like her... Every three days she went out and got a taco. I don't want to do that. We just new to keep pushing on. I have your back, we can do this.

Mine its October 18! I can honestly say I have done some serious fantasizing about food during this Optifast liquid diet but just two more days and I can say I have not cheated a single time! Something to be proud of, I think. =) I have just be telling myself that soon at least some of my hunger will be abated, and perhaps I can start living my life a little less centered around food! I appreciate anyone's prayers for me Thursday.... To be quite honest I am a little scared.

      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.
