I totally know what u mean. Just a little something will make u feel a lot better as well. I was on liquid diet for almost 4 weeks...eating a little something was like having a piece of heaven lol

I tryed tuna fish and cottage cheese and it felt like I dropped a brick in my tummy

I got sick of cottage cheese so fast, can't touch it now. I know the feeling about the brick in the tummy. It will take abit to figure out what ur pouch likes. Ive also discovered that what my pouch likes today, might not like tomorrow. Are u able to eat soda crackers at all? I find those sit well

Oh good i mean it is getting smaller but i also feel like it has something to do with my pain cuz its the exact spot

Yes! I thought the very same thing! I still have pain in that spot if I bend the wrong way or sit for too long. I asked the Doctor if he was sure he connected everything right. He said that it was normal. We will see!

I can do cottage cheese fine, but tuna sat there forever. Gonna wait before I do that again. Gonna try egg salad tomorrow. Used to be one of my favs, so we will see....

One thing that is on track for me. I used Miralax, and it worked like a charm.

I'm still on pureed but I'm not complaining lol I'm struggling with the Protein Shakes tho :( I think I need something different. But at least with two shakes a day I'm taking in 50g of Protein lol plus I'm never hungry so that helps a lot.

I just started the banana cream Muscle Milk shakes. They are yummy, no chalky taste at all. Just tastes like pie. Lol!

      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.
