I'm so sorry:( I can't handle the Protein shakes either...as for Vitamins, I have switched to the Gummy ones...they settle much better than the chewable ones - they started making me sick! I can eat though...I'm 2 weeks, 2 days out...an I make mysel sip every 30 min or so. Hope it gets better for you

I never could do protien either, in food or milk. I had to get it by meat. My surgeon said to not worry about the protien so much until I get the fluids in because the hydration is more important initially. And I had the Bariatric Advantage Vitamins and became very close to vomiting each time to take it so I didnt take any for a while. (not advised lol) but once I could take them again I started on Centrum Multivitamin and Calcium gummies. Much easier

      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.
