I work in a small office and today they ALL decided to order some delicious steak fries from a local deli. THEY SMELL AMAZING!!! The smell of fried potatoes and salt and ketchup is all around me and I can't escape!!!! I am barely 2 weeks post-op and still on a full liquid diet so obviously I won't sneak one but I just wanted to vent my "frustration" to all my sleeve buddies who know how I feel. :) Thanks for listening...I'll go back to my Protein Drink and try to think about something else now. lol

Ugh, I feel your pain. When I was still in pureed stage (thankfully) my mom wanted Popeye's Fried chicken. She's 78, and who am I to deny her a little comfort food.

Little did I know that the aroma of freshly fried chicken in my car would trigger and unleash the only "craving" I've had so far. I promptly dropped off the demon chicken, opened all the windows in my car (even though it was bout 2 degrees out) and drove around the block several times to let it air out before driving home.

Note to self. Have someone else get mom her fix.

      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.
