...it's so strange. I'm 6 weeks out, and I haven't craved anything at all - no steak, pizza, none of my "favorites". I'm not hungry, and have to set my alarm to remind me to eat. :( But popcorn? ? OMG! I think I'll fight Godzilla for a handful of popcorn right about now. This time of year, I'd order my usual holiday Garrett's Popcorn out of Chicago for myself, family, and friends. But if I can't have none, then they can't either! :). Good luck, and thanks to everyone for the info.

Best of luck to you..YOU will WIN the Battle... Focus on your Protein for now...... you will be able to enjoy a FEW BITES of popcorn later... FOCUS on WHY you did the surgery (FOR YOU).. you will FIND that you WILL NOT MISS FOOD!..... Keep your mind strong....and remember WHY you did the surgery!.. ALL I have to do is look at a previous photo,,,, and I am back on track!

Keep those goals UP FRONT! and you will succeed!!!

I am HALF the person I used to be

Just wanted to send out and see who and who IS NOT eating popcorn! There are many WORSE things you can eat, and it is not like we are gulping down gallons like we used too..... I still can eat about a half MINI bag and be happy. I have seen SEVERAL have the surgery, and THEN "TRY TO BEAT" the system... Yeah, OK WHY............NOW you have gained most of the weight you lost back, SO WHAT WAS YOUR POINT and WHO REALLY WON?????????

Those of us that were serious STUCK to the plan and we are very HAPPY and healthier today!

      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.
