Yayyy! You and me are exactly in the same boat:) 12 days and 19.5 lbs lost! Yay for us! My soft food phase doesnt come till day 22:( but im sooo excited. It was hard to go to Target food section today. I was barcoding everything with my Mynetdiary app to see if i can keep some of the foods i love. Mental hunger still here but im getting there:) again, congrats to you!

Be very careful. Cheating preop is one thing. Cheating postop can cause leaks which can be detrimental to your health or worse. My doctor had me on complete liquids for three weeks and I was too scared to cheat. I didn't want to risk killing myself over a craving. Good luck to you!

      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.
