Hi Nicky! Are you required to be on a liquid diet also? How are you feeling?

Yes I am required To be on a liquid diet. I did well the first three days but I started feeling really weak and got diarrhea on day four. The nutritionists had me add in some lean Protein in to the diet as well as a probiotic to help with the diarrhea. She wants me to do this only for the weekend and then to give her a call Monday morning to see if I am feeling better. I hope that I can go back on liquid Monday because I know how important the liquid diet is.

I wish I had a better news story for the liquid diet. How is it going for you?

Hi! I'm looking for sleeve buddies. I started my 10 day liquid diet today. July 1st is coming quickly, yet not fast enough. Getting nervous.

Here's one thread of July 1st sleevers, and here's another! There's quite a few of us July 1st'ers--good to meet you!

      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.
