Thanks! I would say my staples are Fage Plain Greek Yogurt sweetened with one of my Torani sugar free syrups, Cottage cheese, Premier Protein, Isopure carb drinks, sf popsicles and now that I can eat soft foods, I enjoy Sashimi and Miso soup! I feel I eat more than I should but keep it under 750 calories and track everything in MFP!

Down 18.3 including preop. <br><br> I ate refried Beans all day today w cheese and Greek yogurt! Yummy!<br> So much better than Protein shakes. <br> Doc says he would like 55 grams of Protein. And at least 20 oz Water. <br> Interested in what other docs want for consumption?[/quote

19 day post op. MD wants 20/30 grams protein for me. Just started puréed/soft foods

Bought Isopure today. powder Dutch chocolate. Each was 50 grams protein add to milk 1% and get 62 grams. Shooting to drink 1/2 (6oz) a day. Actually not a bad drink

      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.
