If I have surgery before my birthday, I'm going to suspend aging for six months and have my half-birthday in March. ;) Maybe you could do something similar? Wait six months and have a party then?

Ugh! I know exactly what you mean, I very specifically decided to do my surgery this month, six months before my birthday and seven and eight months from the holidays. I sure hope you find something that tastes pretty decent as a way to treat yourself. Happy birthday! And know that you have already given yourself the best gift ever!

I had my surgery ON my 50th birthday - couldn't even have water! But the way I look at it, it's probably going to be the best birthday gift ever!

Hmmm... purees for a birthday? What about plain Greek yogurt flavored with chocolate Protein powder? And a candle, of course!

I would take 2 Tbsp of PB2 and mix with Water and a little splenda and then mix that with 2 Tbsp of fat free cool whip! so good and has 5g of protein:) feels like you are eating Peanut Butter mousse! happy birthday- mine is Sunday!

      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.
