I have trouble getting in the 64 oz. I'm supposed to drink every day. chicken broth makes it a lot easier. I have no problem drinking it...which is weird because plain Water sits in my gut like a brick. Anyways, broth is low calorie....

I am almost 4 months out and I still have that issue with plain Water. I add "crush packets" to the water. These are sugar free and it is those packets like crystal light you add to water. It is like drinking crush soda. Wonderful I live on these things!

The only place I have been able to find them is in a grocery store we have in California called "Food for Less"

I just bought my son the Crush and Hawaiian Punch Water enhancers in the same section you buy Mio. They also have Kool Aid and Dasani water enhancers. He seems to really like them.

I have been drinking Herbalife "beverage mix." You just add the mix to Water, and it has a great flavor, but there are also 15 grams of Protein, no sugar, 2 carbs and 75 mg of potassium, no fat and 70 calories per serving, 2 scoops. So, this is perfect for me, because protein and water are the things I have to get in each day. They are a little spendy, but they are worth it to me. There is a wild berry flavor and a peach mango flavor. I like the wild berry best personally.

      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.
