Three days is such a short period of time. You can do anything for three days. Keep your eyes on the prize.

Three day?!? I was on it for 16 days! I was hungry and whole time and had headaches the first 3 days. Was sleeved yesterday and now the preop is a destant memory. Buck up ... 3 days is a very short investment in you new and improved future.

I was assigned to do a 7 day diet, but ended up tacking on an extra two days because I wanted to give myself time to adjust. I haven't eaten anything since last Saturday.

Even though your time is shorter than mine, it's hard to not eat (hence why we're all on here. LOL).

I don't know what to say to make it easier except try to drink a lot of Water, drink your Protein shakes (they help with hunger) and find a couple really good broths. I like Swanson's tender beef, roissterie chicken and another one that's used as the base for tortilla Soup.

I got some of Rachel Ray's beef broth and it was okay at first, then I heated some up yesterday (so it'd been in my fridge about 3 days) and while it tasted okay, it smelled like wet dog. I don't know if they're all that like or if I just got a bad batch.

You can do it!!!

      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.
