I don't like it that is for sure...but I am having a hard time understanding how some people having the same procedure are on less strict diets than the one my surgeon assigns? Mine is all clear sugar free liquids with the exception of a max of 4 low calorie/high carb Protein shakes per day. I've had a horrible headache for days, am dizzy, lightheaded, tired and grumpy.

I agree. I dont understand why some people have different diets. It seems a little extreme to have a 14 day diet. My surgeon has me on a 7 day liquid diet. Not sure why it varies, but worries me a little.

I'm anxious. Btw my doctor doesn't put you on a special diet pre-surgery. I've been eating anything I want!

Are you nervous?

I think I'm most worried about comic atoms. Of all goes well, I think I can deal with anything.

      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.
