ok, my last meal right now was a salami,cheese,mayo sandwich and a banana, coffee. now for tomorrow to start my liquid diet. I felt I had to eat things today that would not be able to eat for a while.

I feel I did a bad thing in eating like I did.

I wanted to not do this and I gave in, bad of me, but I pray that all goes well and I will stick with the diet and become healthier. no more over 32 meds.

I was taking 32 I stop all the pain pills bc I getting pain shots and went down to 13 health meds and after ill be taking 13 Vitamins so a total of 26 pills a day. until my health meds get taken away. I cant wait, then it will b only 13 vitamins for the rest of my life I guess.

so my last meals was Protein Shake, banana, pc strawberry shortcake, banana, poptarts, a bite of hotpocket and the sandwich so that's was my last meal.

hope I get the call tomorrow to go in and get my ultrasound of the heart.

thank you all.

      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.
