I had a constant headache while on the two week preop diet and the first 4 days after surgery. It gets better. It's your body going through food withdrawal.

Luckily my plain was 2 shakes one for Breakfast and lunch and a high Protein LOW carb dinner. But it was still hard. I stayed home a lot. Had to constantly change the channel cus of damn food commercials. I took a lot of walks with my iPod. I did have a few days I fell off the wagon... But I got back on ASAP and remembered why I was doing this. I also was a lil scared I my doctor lol he had told me he could tell who followed the plan and who didn't and if he didn't think I was ready even on the day of surgery he wouldn't go through with it o_O good luck and STAY STRONG :-D

Today I'm feeling light headed enough so that I won't drive. My stomach keeps growling which doesn't help. I only have 2 days to surgery and have decided to stay home and relax.

      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.
