I can hardly get 2 shakes down, they make me sick. I am trying them today with unsweetened Almond milk. Hopefully this will make for a better day!!

You know what's good too? If your allowed Decaf coffee, mix the shake and coffee. Then it tastes kinda like a mocha

Okay, so the Dr upped my surgery date to the 25th....waaaaahhhh. :( . Ah well. That's not much farther off from my original date (20th), only 5 days more.......sigh. He had some family stuff to do apparently....... :huh: . I didn't push honestly, didn't want him to have daggers on the mind while doing my surgery! LOL.

I have begun prepping myself by stopping coffee, tea and cutting down carbs. I have even started sipping my Water in hopes to make my preop easier. I start preop on the 1st shakes n sf Jello. My nutritionist recommends i stay away from clear broth because it can trigger hunger for solid food.

      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.
