RAVEN I WANT TO EAT RIGHT NOW SO BAD.

Don't do it!!! Eat a Popsicle or chew a piece of gum which I'm doing right now to avoid eating.

sugar free Popsicle, fudgesicles if you have access to them while working. They make you feel like youre being naughty and cheating. And try brewed iced tea with barely any sweetner in it at all. Just enough to tell theres some there will do the trick.

I found hot beverages like herbal tea helped my appetite when I wanted to eat!

Make a list of why you're doing this. Put it anywhere you have access to food so that you are forced to see it before you make a bad choice. You can do this! When you get through it you will be looking back and be so proud of yourself.

I will not be required to do a liquid diet before surgery so I am not sure if you can have protien shakes? But if you can Unjury has a chicken Soup flavored protien poweder that you can add to Water. I have read a lot of people who have tried it and think its great. I dont like sweets at all so I plan on ordering it to have after surgery! Maybe you can try it out. It could be a pleasant change from all the sweet stuff :) Good Luck!!!

I drank chicken broth with pepper. It was such a treat to have something that wasn't cold or sweet. I saved it for my evening snack and went to bed happy. And early. :lol:

My surgery is also scheduled for the 12th but I don't start my 7 day full liquid diet til the 5th. How come you are already on day 5 of it? Are you getting it done in Mexico?

Hang on there NG - you're doing so gooooood and you will be so happy and proud in the end. No self sabatoging- you've come this far. Try some of the other suggestions- like something warm.

Hiya! So proud of you ngm! Day five must be really hard, your over the "excitement motivation" of day 1 and far away from "imminent surgery motivation" of last day!

I know you will do your best possible and plan better tomorrow...

We believe in you! Beth

      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.
