I'm going to go in one month. I will be 5 months out by then. I am hoping to share meals and leave most of mine on the plate. If I was one month out I think I would bring a lot of food with me and maybe a

blender. It would be worth the extra cost of checking a bag.

I'm ten weeks out and have been on four trips. It's hard. I pack Protein Shakes. One for each day. And one Protein Bar for each day. That gives me 50 grams of Protein. I keep one shake on ice each day in the room. Then I carry nuts and the protein bar in my purse. That way I only have to eat one meal more. And I usually choose a slice of pizza. And I eat the toppings of meat and cheese off it. I also ordered some protein chips for a snack

Good suggestions. I am going to Vegas for a Girl's Getaway 4th of July weekend. I was worried about what or how I was going to eat. Thanks so much!

Just return from Vegas on last Monday.....I had a Protein packed Breakfast....I snacked on Nuts through out the day, had plenty of Water and propel....I even at a buffet. ....I ate crab legs, a morsel of this a morsel of that and took two Cookies in my purse for later. I had a few drinks. I'm not much of a drinker but it was my honeymoon....I even lost a pound.

      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.
