Pre-op diet is much harder then post-op, at least for me. Pre-op you can still eat you are just relying on will power, post-op you cant eat. Much easier post-op. Hang in there and do your best!

I never thought I would say this but Thank God I am sick starting my pre-op diet! I can't smell anything and haven't noticed much that I have been on liquids since yesterday. I hope it stays like this!!! Good luck y'all!

keep going, it does get easier when the hunger subsides and it will be worth it, you can do this. x

I've been complaining since Halloween when I started mine and yesterday I told my mom that I would be so happy when surgery is over and that I bet she would be happy too. She said, "you're still going to want those foods" and I told her that the wanting would eventually go away, but at least I would be full. I miss that miserable full feeling more than the actual food. Quite the realization coming from a self-proclaimed "foodie"!!!

It's surprising what you don't want. I must admit that a caramel with milk chocolate was akin to a god in my previous life. Today...I have zero desire for anything that sweet! Bizarre, but nice LOL

I just tried mixing my plain fat free Greek yogurt with my chocolate Protein Powder and SF chocolate pudding mix. I could not stand the thought of another shake. I'm allowed a yogurt as a snack as part of my daily dairy intake per my pre-op diet directions. And let me tell you...it was yumm-o!

      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.
