HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!

Just had my cup of low sodium chicken broth for brunch.. looking forward to some turkey and veggies for dinner later.. at least it's real food..lol

Doc said it was okay--3 oz turkey, 8oz of veggies and that's it.. then a cup of broth later this evening ...so I don't wake up hungry.. and Water, water, water..

Found out I have to do all Clear Liquids on Saturday and Sunday...OY! I've managed so far because at least I could have actual food and a chocolate Protein shake.. now all clear just broth, water and Protein Shots pretty much.. now that is going to be a little harder..guess I'll clean again this weekend too..lol My house hasn't been this bright and shiny since I moved in..a few years back! I've hit every corner, organized every cabinet and drawer, turned over furniture, pulled out appliances, etc. This time maybe I'll scrub all the tile with a toothbrush..haha..

Thanksgiving was my biggest challenge yet on this pre op diet. Our party of 20 motored through a 29 pound turkey and lots of great stuff. My wife and I did all the cooking so I had it all right in my face.

But, I held strong and have only consumed 500 calories today.

      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.
