I see the NUT and the nurse tomorrow for my 2 wk pre op. Im both scared and excited! With all of us doing this at the same time we can lean on eachother and vent to one another.. right?? I have not gotten the gas x strips yet or the popsicles. But I will, anything else?

Not sure. The vets say not to overbuy foodstuff. So I'll have a few different types of sf drinks and mixers, Popsicles, bottled Water, broths and Soups to strain, Jello and premier chocolate rtd shakes. So I'm pretty much set for my preop and post op.

Might pick up some PB2 for after I come home in case I want a Peanut Butter taste with my Protein Shakes. Have y'all tried that?

I hate the Isopure. It is so nasty I thought I was gonna hurl. I did go to herbalife and they have this peach mango beverage mix that tastes like Kool-ade. It has no sugar, and 2 carbs and 15g Protein for 8 ounces. It DOES have 70 calories so I can drink it before surgery on my preop. I tried one in the blender with ice and it was like a sno cone.

      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.
