I cannot wait for mushy food. Friday.....come on Friday!!!!

I don't blame you! Even one week liquids was difficult, so I can imagine the torture of two weeks! 3 more days! I think the mushy will get old for me because I don't transition to solids until next Thursday....bandster hell, we will make it through it!

Wow! I am excited for you. I have been eating Soups like Tomato, thinned down cream of chicken....even broccoli-cheese soup....I don't eat the chunks. I made Jello and it was crazy how little I could eat. I can do about a cup or just under of Soup, but could only get 3 spoons of jello down.

Good for you on still having little hunger! I can tell mine is back, but making sure I keep my head in the game on my ultimate goal! Good news is I am an Accountant and am in busy busy season, so I am keeping myself occupied through the hunger! We are on our way!!!

Does the 20lbs include the pre-op diet?

      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.
