I started today. If I could go back a week, I would've detoxed off of caffeine beforehand. That's been worse today than being hungry. I was normally good for 10 or more diet cokes a day and cold turkey sucks. But this is all for a bigger purpose so I'll suck it up.

You can do it! :) I'm on day 4 of mine. I'd be lying if I said it was easy, but it's not SO much of a struggle that it's unbearable haha just stay busy! It helps. Good luck!!!

I'm having the Gastric Sleeve procedure on Feb 25th. I have not been given a pre surgery diet except for Clear liquids 24 hrs before and nothing after midnight. My last meal is going to be Chinese food I think!

I wonder if the won ton Soup broth is ok after the surgery? Hmmmm!

You can! I'm almost done with day 6, and I promise you if I can do it, anyone can! It's been easier than I thought. If you can have sf pudding and low cal yogurt, then LOAD UP. I eat a few of each of those every day, along with a Protein shake, ProtiDiet concentrate (basically liquid crystal light but with protein) and add some powder to my Soup, and I've been averaging 100-110g of Protein a day... Which is why I'm barely ever hungry. I've been lucky though. No headaches, barely any hunger, and surprisingly not cranky.

You got this!!

I had my last meal last night too-Chinese also. But I had egg drop Soup so it's all good. :) Today I am having nothing but clear liquids, tea, chicken broth and Powerade Zero orange. I was only put on restrictions the day before (today) and nothing after midnight. I'll be in bed between 8-9 anyway. Good luck to you!

Day two of pre op diet for me, and even though I can have caffeine and soda now, I cannot after surgery so I just ousted that yesterday as well. I didn't realize how much caffeine I had daily until now. As for my last meal before pre diet, I had noodles. Won't get to have those for awhile :-)

You might want to ask your surgeon or nutritionist! Good luck!! I won't have surgery until March 7th so I'm not doing the diet yet! On the paperwork the surgeon office gave it said 4 day before surgery of liquid diet and clear the day before!

      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.
