Well it's Sunday morning, I am 5 days into my liquid diet and three days away from my surgery. Its been pretty hard. But this morning is really hard. My wife just made pancakes and bacon for her and the kids and the smell is almost too much to take. I think I’m going to go to work and finish up a few things just to get away from the smell........

I know what you are going through, My son and his wife live with me and she is thin and can eat anything so she is always making pizza and bacon and eggs and the scent manages to make it to my bedroom and drives me nuts. lol. My son brought home doughnuts and she bakes cakes and Cookies with no regard to my feelings.. sighh But I decided to rent them my home and I'll look for an apartment. Guess being married you can't do that.. Good Luck..:)

I hate it when my husband makes bacon! It stinks up the whole house!! He made it yesterday and when we came home hours later I could still smell it! By the way I like bacon had a piece yesterday hehehe.. I just hate the way it stinks up everything.

Edit!!

I just went downstairs and he's at it again! Skinny bastard... And I walk in, and him and my son are making waffles and squirting chocolate whipped cream on top! Who buys this stuff.

Yes it is definitely Sunday 0_o

Well I stayed at work all day and got away from the smell. Plus with my surgery in two days I needed to get something’s done anyway. Guess there will be many more of these days ahead, guess I will be getting lots of work done lol.

I really can’t be mad at her, I am the one who put myself in this position.

My wife would actually come into the family room with a big plate of grub and chow down right in front of me, while I was getting ready for surgery. She couldn't believe that I was pissed off about that.

I figured out how to curb bacon cravings..,eat Flinstone's chewable Vitamins before you eat of bacon. Makes it taste like the pig was raised on acidic rain and rusty nails!

So it tastes like turkey bacon, lol.

It's not a terrible idea to remove yourself from the situation. Pre-op diets are hard. It's easier post op once you get back to normal foods becase you CAN have some, but right now... Just got to fight it out and muscle your way though. Ask her to open a window and light a candle too, bacon smell lingers... lol

      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.
