It's normal and will pass. Your brain is remembering your old way of eating. Be sure to drink your Protein and Water even if you don't want it to stay strong and keep your body from going into starvation mode. When the weight starts falling off, you won't miss it! = D

I've had many of those blah days. They suck. Here's the good news - it WILL get better. Hang in there!

There will surely be more days when nothing tastes good and you just feel crappy, but with each new week it gets a little easier. You are just having a normal recovery period:) The Constipation sucks too. I think we all have it from time to time. There's Milk of Magnesia, Miralax, more Fiber etc. Personally I take a couple of laxatives in pill from. Many people will say the pills are a bad choice and could cause problems. Maybe so and maybe not. I've had no problems.

You can check with your Dr for suggestions or just make your own choice. You are having perfectly normal feelings:)

      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.
