I know what you mean about you don't know what to do & trying to distract yourself, food comes to mind....it's because our lives revolve around food! I know I'll have the same issue. It's not till after we get sleeved & start losing weight that we'll realize there is more to life than planning everything around food! At least I hope it will be the case for me. I wake up thinking what I'm going to make for dinner for my family & I. I have Breakfast first thing in the morning & then a few hours later I'm having lunch & then a snack at 3-330p & then I'm nibbling on stuff as I'm cooking. I need to start thinking like a skinny person. They do think "differently" than we do, you know! LOL! Good luck to you sweetie...I'll be on that same road as you pretty soon!

Yes I totally agree... I'm on day two of full liquid diet and any free time in my brain I'm thinking of food.. I didn't realize how much food is on my mind. I just drink a whole lot of Water or a grab a SF Jello or SF ice pop.. Unless its shake time.. Lol

      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.
