Let's see, Day 0 was the day after surgery (Tues). Today, 2/5 Wed. Was Day 1 and I've felt my sleeve gurgle a lot -- which feels somewhat like hunger pangs pre-surgery - but I'm NOT actually hungry - just trying to sip as much Protein (Isopure) as I can - which hasn't been anywhere near the 30 oz. goal - more like 12 oz. today & 8 oz. yesterday. This is tough!

I feel awesome. No problems really. I'm eating well just smaller amounts so it's exactly what I wanted :)

I still get hungry when it's time to eat which at first made me upset cause I don't wanna be hungry. But then the tiniest amount of Protein takes that away immediately so hungry or not, I can live with that.

      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.
