Ms keekee when does your preop start? Right now I'm just drinking the carnation essentials for 3 times a day.. That's what my surgeon suggested. I did order a starter pack from powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury. It came with chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, and chicken Soup flavor.. I've tried the chocolate and the chicken and they are pretty good.. And I'm allowed broth.. I can't stomach the plain broth from a can it carton so I've been straining chicken Soup or veg soup and just drinking the broth.. Yum!! Good luck!!

Andrew.. I would kill for some cod! Haha good luck!!

I do that. If I gorge myself with dessert I feel like I'm starving when I wake up. If I eat lean and green I'm not hungry at all and actually skip Breakfast and/or lunch (a big no-no). But mine is with sweets. If I have dessert the night before.

I'm on day 10 of mine....but my surgeon is allowing full liquids ( cream Soups, farina, cottage cheese), so mine hasn't been bad at all. Except for when my husband got pizza....it was hard, but I stayed away.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
