I just called Bariatric Advantage 1-800-898-6888 and asked if they have any samples and they are sending me a gastric bypass sample kit and a Protein Powder sample for free and on their website the gb sample kit is $9.25 so im glad i called and got one free :)

I start it monday not looking forward to it

Same here! I start on Monday. How classically ironic huh? Start a liquid diet on April fool's day, which also happens to be a Monday ( I despise Mondays) and they are taking my coffee away too :-(

Last weigh in went great. Got some questions answered. My information will be submitted by Friday, and the nurse told me to call them within a week to get them moving! Hopefully there won't be a delay, as my surgery is on the 22nd. Sorry for the delay in updating the surgery list. I haven't felt the greatest with pain and pain meds. Will do tomorrow! For all of you April 1st gals, it is soooooo close!

So do I!! This one has no pictures tho...and I generally prefer my recipe books to have pictures lol but since I'm on the liquid diet I'm glad there's no pictures lol I would like to get a few cookbooks aimed for ppl that have had WLS.

      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.
