Im on day 4 of 10 days of all liquids. Maily Protein Shakes. The last day, which is the day before surgery i can only have Clear Liquids. And yes it is hard, but we can do this. So far I have lost 6 lbs. so I feel like it is worth it.

Wow I have never heard of that !! I did not have to do any diet what so ever before surgery. I only had to do the usual before surgery, nothing to eat after 12 midnight and the day before surgery I had to eat light and take a laxative at 6 pm. Surgery was at 7 a.m. so I was not bothered by not being able to eat or drink. Good luck with your surgery, please keep us posted :)

I had my surgery on 4/9/12, I was originally going to go for the lapband but when I went for my first consult, my surgeon said you lose more weight with the RNY so I chose the RYN.... I really wanted the best bang for the buck (even thought ins. paid). If you follow your surgeons directions exactly you should have no problems. I was back to work in 1 week and had no problems what so ever.

      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.
