How you feeling how's everything going for you any new tips?

Hi cara! Still feeling really great physically. I have followed my plan to a tee but am not seeing much change on the scale yet. I am however wearing clothes i could not fit into before surgery so i know things are shuffling around. I am still positive and know it takes time after surgery for the body to clear out the fluids. I also had another surgery just another month before this one so have the deck stacked against me ...but only for now. There is no way to not loose so i know it will happen. I am really enjoying the time off and am sleeping like a baby ....plus taking an afternoon nap! ....just amazing! I went to a support group meeting last night so it was good to get out and go some. I am back to pushing the fluids and not thinking about food choices yet. So far shakes, Isopure, unjury chicken, g2, etc are keeping me satisfied. I wish i was not so fixated on the scale but have always been a daily weigher. So how are you? I so glad you checked in! I keep thinking about how wonderful our summer is going to be!

      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.
