I am 4 months out and I get hungry. But it doesn't take much to make the hunger go away. For me (I know everyone is different) it was one of the easiest things I have ever done. I was ready and willing to do what needs to be done. I am down 75 lbs and loving my new life. Still have about 30 more to lose but it will come off. You can do this. The liquid diet is the hardest part of the journey.

I had those thoughts too that i can't eat these things ever again! That is so not true. After a while you will be able to eat them. Hers the big secret....for the first couple months you won't want them! When you have no appetite food is much less appealing. If you eat something you shouldn't then you won't feel well and you will think real hard before eating it again lol. Think of it as shock therapy :) when something makes you feel bad you really don't want to eat it. You may miss it but not crave it. Honestly, the food thing has been fine. What i want to do, , and i am fighting it daily, is smoke! Giving up both has sucked but given a choice, I'd rather smoke at this point. I just have to keep fighting it. You aren't giving up food forever, honest!!

      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.
