You're going through what we all did. Give it a few more days and you won't be as miserable and you'll be surprised at how good you feel considering how little you're eating.

With all my struggles, one thing I can say is that post-op, your hunger issues should be way better. One week post op for me and I have not been hungry at all. Right now having the opposite problem.

broth, drink broth. And not the low sodium kind. Your body needs salt to survive so it will give you a boost of energy. I used to go to Panera bread and ask for the chicken noodle or French onion Soup -- just the broth. They were always very nice to just give me the broth, and it always gave me energy.

Hang in there! It's going to be amazing!

      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.
