I'm almost 3 weeks out and I am still figuring it out. I can cook but I am a bit lost.

I'm also a chicken so I keep it simple.

Today I ate:

Breakfast: Greek yogurt (smooth kind, vanilla) 6 oz

Lunch: Greek yogurt, 6 oz

Dinner: My first time, I got the TB pintos and cheese. I ate it all. I have not been to TB in years and I do not like FF. I blame you people :P No really, it was really smooth and decent, so I thank you all for that lovely idea. 9g of Protein too.

I will try to get in at least one muscle milk and maybe another yogurt or glass of milk to round out my Protein for the day.

I have been eating a lot of cottage cheese but for some reason I end up stopping a little over a 1/4 cup. Last night I was able to do 1/2 cup over a longer period.

I've tried hummus on my cottage cheese but it gives me heartburn right now.

      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.
