That is kind of sucky... however, keep the long term in mind and maybe that will help you get through this. Next year, you should be able to have a little of whatever you want! We all have days like this...we're only human. Good luck!

When I was on liquids pre-op, there was a family gathering at my dad's house. There were a lot of foods I couldn't have, but there were some options that I could enjoy! My brother made chili... tastes like Wendy's chili... I strained it and drank the Soup from it.. it was delicious. My dad made chicken soup and I strained it too. My cousin made creamy chicken noodle soup and I strained it too and had some good creamy chicken soup. Maybe you can do something similar?

I hear ya, I'm on Pre op liquids until my surgery which is on the 14th.. It is tough, especially on the weekends when my kids get invited to stuff. Plus I have not told anyone about the surgery so I have to make up all sorts if stories as to why I can't eat.. I'm sure it will be all 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.
