Sorry, Melinda1, my computer kept coming up with an error when I tried to answer you. I was on a low carb. diet for 14 days prior to surgery and now am on my second day of Clear Liquids. I have got to be at the hospital in the morning at 5:40 am then surgery around 7 to 7:30. Glad it's early. Yesterday i had some doubts about all this, but it's something I have wanted what seems like forever and to get this close and give up, don't think so. Will let you know how I do, when I am able.

Sleeved on March 5th. Stayed at the hospital for 3 days. Home now, only need pain meds if I've been up moving all day. I'm getting very tired of the liquid stage. Ready to move on to more filling foods, but trying to remember that a lot of it is in my head! I'm a little concerned that I don't have any problems drinking Water or approved liquids. I can drink as much as I want (I don't gulp them down, I sip over an hour or so) and they don't leave a full feeling. I am just concerned because they made it sound like I would have a hard time reaching the liquid goal. Anyone else noticing the same thing?

      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.
