I am scheduled for march 10th! I have been working on getting in the habit of exercising. The Protein I have found that I really like is Premier Protein that you get at costco. It has 1g of sugar and 30g of Protein.< /p>

I'm on March 3rd!! I think I'm going to try iso-pure sometime soon because it has so much Protein in it. I'm worried about how to get enough protein in since you can't eat or drink a whole lot at at time.

Had my last appointment on Friday. All requirements have been met. They will submit my chart to Aetna on Monday! I'm so excited. It's doubtful I'll get scheduled before the end of the month so hoping and praying I'll get set up for early March. I'm ready!

Tried the Muscle Milk 100 Ready Made shake and it wasn't bad at all. Tastes like Nestle Quick. Blended with ice and a cup of HEB Mootopia (okayed by my dietician) and it kept me full. Going to try the strawberry today.

Hi everyone, I find out next Tuesday when exactly in March my date is. I'm excited but nervous! Right now I am drinking the Premier Protein shakes from costco. I haven't tried anything else tbh. I still need to stock up on chewable vitamins too. I've slowly weaned myself off of fast food and sweets, as well as soda. My body doesn't adjust well to cold-turkey!

      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.
