I am almost 9 months out and trust me - it gets better. Day 4 was my day of buyers remorse - the day regret sets in and you wonder wtf you've done!!!! You want a bowl of popcorn cos that's your head talking not your stomach ;-) I really started to feel like myself from about 4 weeks out.

I'm right there w/you! I sooo want popcorn too! LOL I'm 8wks out and I'm afraid to try it just yet. I will prob wait until 6months before I try. I think my Dr might release me to eat it at my 3m, but I'm too scared it will cause problems(that and I love it and don't want it to be my "trigger" food) plus right now it's a fine balancing act between trying to get all my protein/water in and watching calories. Don't have room for it in my daily food schedule, but sure would kill for a bowl full!! :) Its especially hard because my husband and boys eat it nightly! But I have resisted and am so proud of my willpower! That is half the battle, fighting temptations :)

Yes one day you can have it again. Wait for the OK from your dr first, as it could cause some serious problems before you are healed. Also, it is a slider, so be sure to measure the amount for your serving and don't eat more than 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.
