I have to echo the last note. I had mine on Tuesday, and the first couple of hours were REALLY, REALLY rough. The next two days in the hospital were not bad. I think yesterday was my hardest day. My doc has me on sugarfree Jello, broth, and Water only. With my Vitamins, I'm taking in fewer than 100 calories a day. Yesterday I was really getting low, especially as I was watching everyone else eat. (But I also think I watched too much news-- such awful things going on.) Today, I felt almost normal. I'm really struggling to get my water in, though. The new tummy is making it really hard. I think I got 40 oz today. But I'm working on it. Good luck tomorrow! It will be so worth it!

      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.
