I'm scheduled for March 5th. Start my liquid diet this Tuesday! I'm using Matrix vanilla Protein Shakes. I'm blessed to have a doctor who hosts an incredible support group monthly. We get to try all manner of Protein shakes, etc.

I have been on a preOp diet since Thanksgiving. My surgeon required I lose 10% of my weight before surgery. I made goal today so I am good to go. I have had to see a dietician everyMonth. Now that I am just weeks away I am seeing the dietician every week. I have dropped almost 40 pounds.

Congrats on the weight loss that is fantastic. The only preop I have is on the 3rd for two weeks but it is an all liquid diet.< /p>

I was pretty freaked out about the Protein Shakes but found the Muscle Milks to be pretty good and easily tolerated. I haven't tried the powdered Protein yet. I am drinking one Meal Replacement shake a day.

Me too! I'm scheduled for 3/3. I'm 7 days into my liquid diet... already down 10 pounds! Starting to get really nervous about the recovery & when I can eat something other than Protein Drinks. Anyone else super grumpy and tired on this liquid diet? I hope my husband is still talking to me by my surgery date. Jk.

      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.
