I am so looking forward to having tuna. I am 9 days post-op and on full fluids. Will move to soft foods in a few days but I cheated last night (omg) I had a few bites of an omelette. But tuna is my favourite.

OMG!!!! Salma, I am so glad to hear about your cheat! I am 6 days post op and I had the tip of a teaspoon of Peanut Butter. Heard my stomach rumble and vowed NOT to cheat for a while! Can't exactly say NEVER! But I had to cave. These Soups are killing me!!! LOL

I haven't broken down yet but I gotta agree on the post-op clear diet- tropical fruit flavors and Protein taste like crud to me and the chicken broth is getting really old already. I made my son some mac and cheese for lunch and had to back away slowly :)

      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.
