I've done so well on the diet until today. I'm on my period, and 800 calories is definitely not enough for this hunger. I ended up having a can of chicken noodle Soup. It wasn't a cheeseburger, but I'm still wanting to eat. I'm sure it is emotional. I'm so angry that I have until the 22nd, and I'm struggling so hard.

give yourself a break. Be kind to yourself. I am only a week out after getting my sleeve and my hunger is very little.I feel completely in control of my eating for the first time and I had a hard time on my pre diet.You can do this.Forgive yourself and start again. I would have never made it without boxes of sugar free Popsicles.

I am finishing up day 8 of my pre-op liquid diet and I am having a very hard time tonight. I am due for my period, having the PMS cravings and PMS headaches and have just been sitting g in my bed so I don't get too close to temptations!!!!! I wish the 23rd would get here all ready!!!!!!! :(

I'm on the same boat, I'm on my pre-op diet and starting my period soon. I actually think I'm going to be starting the day of my surgery or be on day two. It's going to be horrible to be at the hospital like that especially because I get it really bad. I'm craving sweets and starting to cramp.. Ugh.. :(

I see so many of u are on a pre-op diet. Is this to lose weight right before surgery? My Dr just had me on a 1200 diet up until surgery. I lost 25# . I did not have to even do Clear Liquids the night before. My surgery was Jan 14, and I am doing really good. It is hard to get your stage

2 diet in.

Give yourself a break. It is hard but you just have to remember that you are doing this to be ready for surgery. It will be ok

      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.
