I know, try to think about it too much. That's how I felt, but today is 2 weeks and I survived, you will too! The first 2-3 days are the hardest but u will be ok I promise!

That will be the hardest part. .we eat out a lot. I am not much of a cook... been a single mom... and now that he is a young man..he is out and about a lot..he is not home for dinner.. and I will not cook for just myself... I have a feeling all this is gonna change...

It sure will! But just take it one day at a time. I had to stop and just think and worry about the "now" because I was driving myself insane trying to think of the days to come and how and what I was going to do.

So its one day at a time, and if something comes up, I ask, email or call someone and I'm ok.

We are all here for you, you are not alone. We can do this together!

      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.
