I Am Starving!



Recommended Posts

I am on the pre-op Liquid Protein diet for surgery on Monday and have been for almost 2 weeks. These shakes are starting to wear on my nerves, and even though I always loved popsicles before I am starting to despise the site of those little wooden sticks :-(

And I won't even discuss the broth situation. To think I have 2 more weeks of this after the surgery is distressing to say the least.

I know, I know, it's worth it in the end but still...........

That's amazing! And after the surgery as you lose the weight and gain the energy back you just feel sop motivated to carry on! Just hang in there everything gets better, much better. I also find that the closer to surgery the worst it got because off the anxiety, but find that by talking the anxiety instead of eating it help lots and lots!!! Good luck and keep up the great work :)

      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.
