At first I was a champ! I didn't crave anything didn't feel like I was missing out, I ate only what's on my list! But boy oh boy, as days went on I'm going nuts! What I can eat.grosses me out! :( I crave everything I can't have!

Good luck ladies!

I can smell grease in food now. I am 5 days post op also and have NO urge to chew n' spit. I can understand where that can come from as my surgeon lets us go to pureed food at day 5. I am not hungry, but I know I need to eat. meh. I was visiting my cousin who makes INCREDIABLE food. But when she was making country ham had NO urge to eat it. My brain and my old stomach knew how good it tastes...but I could smell the grease and it turned my pouch. Good luck!

I did that at about week 2 with baby carrots. I was making them for my kids and missed crunchy food. Lol I spit it out and rinsed too! I think it's just a part of coping and adjusting to the new lifestyle. Just be careful that these foods aren't triggers which will lead to cheating!

      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.
