My doc is very much so against caffeine, and I feel like decaf is a gateway drug!

I always go for green yogurt for a snack. High in protein AND Calcium. Otherwise, Atkins have protein bars that are high in protein and low in sugars (read: 1 gram sugar!). Otherwise roasted chickpeas are yummy too! You're doing an amazing job!!!

There really isn't anything that I am not eating. I still avoid Pasta and any bread I eat is very very limited maybe once or twice a month. I am down 85 pounds and still have 50-60 to lose. My goal right now is to reach onderland. In which by Friday I should be.

      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.
