You're eating all of this at weeks 3 & 4 as a gastric sleeve patient? Just checking because I'm not even on purees yet & am at week 2.

Wow, that does seem like a lot of food for weeks 3 and 4. I'm 4 weeks today and still only have between 60 to 70 grams of Protein a day.

This is what I PLAN on eating but I measure ALL of my food (I highly suggest buying a food scale too it's worth the $20!) everything goes through the food processor with the exception of lunch meats which I slice super thin and chew for what seems like hours. Breakfast for example, I say I'm going to have a scrambled egg but in reality I'm having about 2/3 of an egg. I will be starting week 4 this week (same as week three) which is still mushies. Everything I'm eating pretty much looks like cat food! I also use baby spoons and forks to help with bite sizes. Good luck everyone and happy Monday!

      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.
