Thanks ladies.... The first few days were really rougher than I expected.... Things have been getting better everyday, I'm able to meet my Protein goals and do well with consumption... Actually a bit worried, cuz it seems like I can consume more than most people on here that's 1 week out.... I really haven't had too many complications with trying to hold anything down..... I gotta watch that though cuz I don't wanna come to a stall on my weight loss..... Can't wait til I can change up the diet, sick of Soups already! Haven't yet decided what I wanna eat first, but cravings are starting and that's a bit scary! Hoping u are all doing well!! Good luck on your continued journey

      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.
