I Have to do the liquid diet for 14 days.. I am on day 9 and have lost 14 pounds so far... I have tasted a piece or two of chicken breast that was grilled... But that was it.. It took until day eight for it to get easy... But hang in there it will be okay

Thanks Pretty! I wonder why some liquid diets are 1 wk some are 2. Can you give any Protein shake suggestions? At this point I'm going w low carb slim fast yuck!

Try matrix or Protizyme Protein shakes. They have great flavors and ate approved for use by most nutritionists.

I am drinking the unjury, lean shakes from GNC, medislim I get those from my primary care doctor... And the key is to drink lots of Water I drink about 80 ounces of Water in between shakes and throughout the day:)

      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.
