I think your body just adjusts to the new amount and then with the addition of purees it adjusts again. It eventually says "hey lets drop a few pounds"!

Ok since no one responded I'll let u all know. I've tried Shamrock Farms Protein Shake and it is great. Best I've tasted. If your having problems with the taste of Protein Shakes I highly recommend this. 190 calories and 30 grams of Protein. AMAZING!!!!

Sounds good. Where did you find it?

Haha. Thanks! I didn't respond because I didn't know what it was. So I obviously haven't tried it.

Can you get Water through? Maybe that would push it through? And is it actually a pill or just feel that way?

I'm not sure if it is really stuck but it feels that way. I drank a a small amount of milk & it has seemed to help a little but I can still feel it a little.

If it is a pill it will dissolve and feel better.

I use the eat slower app, and set it anywhere from a minute to 2 minutes depending on what I'm eating. If it's relatively soft and I don't have to chew it too much, I do a minute. If i have to chew it a lot, I start with a minute and a half and see how it feels, and sometimes I end up putting it to minute 45 or 2 minutes. Pretty much I just see how the first couple bites go, and adjust accordingly.

I love the eat slower app.

      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.
