Well to survive u kinda have to. I would eat things that benefit u the most like ur Protein etc. Make sure ur getting ur Vitamins bc u don't want to wind up back in the hospital deficient and really sick. I know its hard and ur dealing with a lot but u gotta take care of yourself. If u need to vent I don't mind to listen.

I felt that way only on my 3rd day after surgery and was still at the hospital, they took me off the pain meds and by thursday I was as good as new. I was soooooo sleepy with the pain meds, I had no interest in drinking anything, even though I had been on 2 days of no drinks or food.

Hope you feel better and I agree with Kelly, you don't want to end up in the hospital with dehydration. Take care!

      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.
