I had a two week liquid diet as part of an obesity study that led to my band surgery. Of course the two weeks fell during my son's graduation, the parties associated with that, and an annual crawfish boil we throw. My mantra (said many times to myself and said many times to me by my kids) was YOU CAN DO ANYTHING FOR TWO WEEKS..... YOU CAN DO ANYTHING FOR TWO WEEKS. And we ticked off the days. Those two weeks were going to go by whether I stayed on the Liquid Protein diet or not...... I CHOSE to make them go by sticking to the program.

Best of luck to you as you make it through the next week...... Because YOU CAN DO ANYTHING FOR ONE WEEK!

I,also, had 2 weeks liquids only diet! The main thing to remember, when you are liquids only, liquids in, and usually liquids out! Best wishes, Karen..aka..kll724

@wendydarling I envy you. Lol jk I have read on this forum a lot of banders did not have to do the liquid diet. I thought why in the world do I have to??? Just depends on the doc. Good luck.

Don't worry, you'll be fine. I'm on day 7 of my pre op milk diet. It's hard but not impossible. I've lost 11 lbs already, 7 days to go. Op is on the 16th. X

      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.
