Good morning everyone, I am on day 6 of 14 on my clear luquid diet and I just wanted to ask a question, I have to drink 2 Meal Replacement shakes and 2 shakes of my choice, I use Atkins. I am having a hard time getting this in. I'm just not hungry, I have to make sure that I eat.

I have lost 14 lbs as of last wed 29th and I feel good. Has anyone else had a problem with making sure they get all their shakes in?

Yes, It's normal not to be hungry. I'm three mouths out and I still have to use a alarm to remind me to eat. I would suggest to put them in a drink bottle and carry them with you. Like your Water. Good luck. It will get better and keep a positive attitude. : )

Believe me I try, I bring my Water with me but I just keep forgetting, but thanks for the advice and good luck with your continued success!

Some drug stores have little 32 oz tubes that have mega-protein. I understand they are very sweet, but at least they are smaller quantity. You may want to get one and try that.

My recommendation would be the Unjury® Protein powders. I love the chocolate splendor and the chicken Soup is great when you want something savory instead of sweet.

      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.
