I am down in Houston. I'm self pay as well but no help from the issuance. I'm only on day 3. What I wouldn't give for a dang chicken breast or something. I only have a liquid diet for 5 days but man it feels like forever. I don't think if I can take one more cup of Soup.< /p>

Hi Jennie, I am Tuesday too. I am on a 10 day liquid Protein shake diet and 1 day Clear liquids. To make matters worse, I have PMS and the total munchies.

We only have three more sleeps then it is our turn. Good Luck to you!

oh I am in San Jose, CA.

Cheers,

Bonnie

This has been the hardest thing ever. I feel like I'm starving to death. I tell myself that it will get easier when our stomachs are smaller. I just miss chewing food!!

      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.
