I also found 2 things that helped with liquids and Protein at first. Isopure' date=' which is like Gatorade in glass bottles, got it at Vitamin Shop and GNC. Low calorie, no carb and protein! I also order Special K2O Protein Mix from Amazon, like crystal light only with protein, put some in a big glass of Water and sip all day long!

does that k20 taste good? what flavor? i gave up on Protein drinks 2 months ago. im 4 months out so i eat a lot of greek yogurt, cheese, and hard boiled eggs. i want a new drink, im just burnt out on chocolate/vanilla crap lol. the liquid stage made me hate to go back to a few things.

The K2O is really good. You can buy it at Walmart or your grocery store. It's where the Protein Bars etc are. I think the flavor is kiwi strawberry and its really good. I like to use that instead of crystal light. Only has 5g of Protein but crystal light doesn't have any.

Are you getting in a B12 shot or taking liquid drops? I am supposed to do that and was told it will help with energy too.

      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.
