Is it HMR800 shakes? 5 per day? That is what I am going to be starting this Monday, the 29th - hope it won't be hell to do...I've lost 9lbs so far on my own - hoping for some more on the liquid 2 week phase - good luck

You might think about slacking off on the gym on your 2 week diet. You can lose only so much quickly, then you will stall. You don't want to stall before you even start. Eating that little plus working out hard could send your body into a starvation mode...such as it is. I think I lost 15 pounds on my 10 day preop with no calorie restrictions whatsoever...just drinking shakes and eating nothing but Soup. And I didn't workout once.

I lost 23lbs on my pre-op diet...As the days winded down towards my surgery, I ate less and less and stressed. I was only drinking my Protein Shakes and Water. I have a physical job and I worked about 20 hours overtime and I did alot of walking and thinking during that time, so I was pretty active. I had some broth the night before, just because my mother made me eat <_<

      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.
