I'm on day 2 of 2 weeks and I'm hungry. I'm starting to feel...foggy? Is that the word? I didn't think the "wirthdrawal" effects of not eating carbs or more than 1200 calories would hit me so fast. I snapped at a co-worker today and I am such a nice person, very outgoing and a huge amiable. I think it'll get a little worse too, but it is so worth it to me. I can't wait to see how much weight I will lose just on the pre-op diet alone.

The best advice I can give someone on a pre op diet is this: eventually it will be your surgery day. You will be nervous as all hell and there was nothing more comforting to me than knowing I followed my surgeons orders and did everything I possibly could to have a safe, successful surgery.

Girls we are cruel creatures!

What does your diet plan call for?

What can you have?

Does it get easier after surgery?? I won't be hungry right away. Right?

Easier? eventually yes... It's does come with some challenges though. You won't fully feel "satiated" until you "eat" at the purée stage.. People also (me included) still have some issues with head hunger.. But all and all yes it gets better you just have to give it time...

This is hard know that, let your girlfriend know that, and tell her there will be some hard moments afterwards and you will need her support on those hard days but it will get better.

      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.
