Gia24- it gets so much easier after the third day I promise! The 2nd and 3rd day are the toughest but hang in there! I slept most of my liquid diet days away to pass the time quicker! It helps! Stay strong your almost there!

Yeah, I haven't slept much in the last two days, I had my pre-op testing today, so had to fast, once I got home I down 2 shakes and crashed, down the other 2 once I woke up and been eating sf Jello and sf popsicles A lot to curb my appetite. The only things that bother me is the the food commercials on tv! Lol they suck!

My surgeon didn't put me on a pre-op diet but I' m compelled to do at least 2-3 days of it. Can anyone share their diet with me?

I need to start this on Sun and God knows I'm already mourning 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.
