7days post op and im having a really hard time getting in my Protein. I hate the powder and im over the shakes. At this point im jus suffering through hoping the day where I can get protein from solid foods will come sooner than later!! Otherwise blessed to be healing up well!

I completely understand. I'm only at the end of day 4 on the pre op diet and it sucks! My surgery is on the 26th and I am so ready for it just so I won't be hungry...okay that and I'm ready to begin my new life. Good luck!

I find out tomorrow at my pre op appointment if I have to go one. I hope I don't! But if I have to, I will just be glad it's shorter than a lot of the ones I have seen :)

I did have my sleeve done on monday and I am back home this morning

It was a bit difficult at time but overall it was OK

It was only two day ago and I am feeling much better

I had my firs shack today it went through no problem

Every one is different but for me it was a good thing to stay two days at the hospital that they keep you on IV and give saline all the time to flush the system

Good luck to every on who is going through

Who all is on their liquid diet? I started mine Monday, I could have waited till today to start it, but my son is gone to camp till tomorrow, so I thought it would be easier to start it when he wasnt home and I wasnt having to cook for him. It has worked out great. I was told if you can make it thru day3 or 4, you were good. So far, so good! I can only have Clear Liquids, broth, tea or coffee with sugar free sweetener, SF popsicles, SF Jello and 1-3 Protein Drinks (EAS AdvantEDGE brand only). Then on the day before, I can only have clear liquids and have to do a colon cleanse.. :blink: Fun day that will be....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.
