Does anyone's doctor say they need to stay away from white potatoes? Mashed potatoes are one of my favorites to make or order for dinner when out. They are smooth and go down easy. I know they have starch and sugar, but I can only eat a little bit anyways.

Mashed potatoes are on the list they gave me for puréed foods to try. They do say to limit how much of it you eat since its no Protein.

I think most everyone is on the same page with Protein first, then veggies and fruit. As for bread, I can have whole grain Pasta, bread or crackers, just have to look for low sugar, 3 or more grams of Fiber and low fat. I have been reading a lot of labels for nutrition content and to vary the diet. After eating protein and little veggies, there's not much room for anything else!!

I have trouble with chicken every time! Had baked thigh tonight and it came back up. Had chicken x 3 and it came up x 3. Guess its time to quit trying! Hope u have better luck.

I also have a problem with chicken either it will make me sick or I wish I get sick because it will feel so heavy in my pouch

Same. Which is fine because I'm a carb addict. I haven't had any carbs in almost three weeks and I'm feeling good. Not sluggish anymore.

      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.
