I am now 3 weeks post op and down 25 pounds ! Super excited , haven't had a problem with food besides Protein ... I REFUSE TO HAVE ANOTHER shake EVER ! I got nauseous from one and it has scared me for life .

I never thought I would have to force myself to eat ! I bought that Proteinex liquid Protein ... And gagged it all the way up so that doesn't work :/

Milk worked for me ... Now it doesn't just 3 days later . Lol what the heck ?

Overall, I am doing well . I take my Vitamins as if it is a ritual lol !!!

And I won't lie, exercise is non existent right now. I tried to go back to cheer leading and after 15 minutes .., I was done for ...

But I am completely happy thus far !

I am so glad that your doing great. 25lbs in 3 weeks thats awesome! Keep trying the Protein. It's very hard to get it all in with just getting it from food intake. I mixed the Protein powder with almond milk or skim milk. That made it taste better. You can also get some of the sugar free Torani flavorings to put in your shakes. Walmart sells some in the coffee isle. World market also sells some if have one near you. I have trouble with deli turkey. It's gotten stuck 3 times. My taste buds have changed. It will get better tough. I'm 6 weeks tomorrow and I'm still always tired.

      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.
