Hey. I have been on my liquid diet since march 26th. I have to do it for 28 days. My surgery is scheduled for April 23rd. The first three days will be the hardest. My doctor doesn't let us have anything but four shakes of Optifast a day plus Water, little amount of broth and sugar free Jello. I see on here some ppl are allowed to eat veggies and I'm so jealous lol. But before I started I weighed 405. I'm now down to 380 in just three weeks so that is definitely motivation. I was soo tempted to cheat and I did at Easter. I had two hard boiled eggs and I felt so bad afterwards because I was doing so good. But I am back on track. It's difficult but I keep telling myself it is not forever l

I'm on my 7th day of the pre op diet. It's hard at first but as the days go by it gets easier. I actually weighed myself today and I've lost 6 pounds. Some might not think that is much but I can't tell you the last time I've lost any weight. So after my surgery as long as I follow the rules I'm gonna lose the weight and become healthy.

Right now I am using Kroger brand slim rite. But I am going today to quick weight loss to get their shakes because they are high Protein and low sugar. And I know I like those because I used them last year.

When I got up this morning I got real emotional and I was tearing up. I guess it hit me that next week this time I will be having my surgery. I'm really not a cryer I'm usually the strong one. Lol. Yes I'll probably be crazy by then.

      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.
