I was eating wheat thins and crackers around week 3.. It was nice to experience the "crunch" factor. I enjoy Honey Nut Cheerios maybe once a week. I've also had Special K. I can't eat much of it but I do enjoy it!! :)

Good Luck!

There's a cereal called special k Protein and it has a lot of protein in it. I'm 4 weeks out and I eat it with a little splinda and 0% skim milk. Very good. I just wait a second till it gets a little Soggy. Lol

I was finally cleared for "soft crumbly & crunchy foods (crisp toast, crackers)". Does anyone know what kind of food products fall into this category? What kind of crackers do you eat, besides wheat thins?

I eat wheat thin crisps and the Special K chips when I have a crunch craving.. I also eat pretzels with Peanut Butter here and there.

      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.
