Lol I was mad because I havent lost a single pound in almost a week... so I took pics so I could see the change and stop worrying about numbers lol. The first 9 days was all liquid, Day 9 my body decided to start rejecting all liquids, including my Protein shakes. I got extremely sick, dr told me to try a soft boiled egg mashed with light mayo, that and chewing ice chips got me through the next 2 days, Saturday I had to go to the er for iv fluids. Im on the pureed stage now, not having issues with food, especially egg salad, chicken salad, tuna salad, refried Beans, and watermelon. However I am having horrible issues with my liquids. I drink a half an ounce and I feel like my pouch is expanding. Its so painful, not sure why my body isnt accepting any liquids. Ive beeb chewing ice to try to stay hydrated.

      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.
