Soooooo, today is our first day on the preop diet. 3-4 Protein Drinks and one meal (3oz cooked meat, one veggie from a list). sugar free Jello "in moderation". That's like 10, right? Lol

I'm wondering what can make the drinks thicker to make our stomachs not grumble for food 30 minutes later....

Otherwise I think the hardest part for me will be COOKING that meal. :/

I just got my insurance approval letter this weekend. With all the running around and doctor appointments and research into every aspect of what I'm getting myself into (and many hours perusing on BP :P ) I had completely forgotten I didn't have an actual authorization from my insurance. LMAO Well, now I'm officially Empire Plan approved. Bring on the 17th!

      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.
