Recommended Posts

I am sooo bummed.. Followed all the rules today was going to be puree, so I bought a rotissere chicken took of the white meat rinsed a can of kidney Beans 1 can rotel tomatoes cumin garlic powder threw it all into my ninja blender and pureed till baby food consistency. measured out 1/4 cup topped with 1 teaspoon fage yogurt and a sprinkle of low fat shredded jack cheese. Well I ate it no problem no restriction no burp no pain no full feeling....Why did I do this process only to be hungry and not satisfied this is not fair!! sorry but have to vent...I also drank my Water had a Protein Shake in am....Surgery was May 27

I didn't really feel restriction until I moved on to real food. Don't sweat it, this will work!

You'll feel it when you begin to eat food that's more dense, and feel more satisfied as well on real food.

I was done on the 28th and feel the same. My doc said dont worry about calories just keep on the fluids. Keep in mind the food you described is considered a slider. Once we graduate to real food the restriction should kick in ans slider foods are no longer allowed.

I went through the same feelings you are going through right now. I was told by many people on this site who have have it done that it will past to hang in there, it gets better. I had trouble seeing how. But trust me when I say that it does get better. I was sleeved on Feb 3 and went from feeling the way you do, to nausea all the time which made me regret the decision even more. Eventually all that past and I have lost 55 lbs so far. I feel better than I have in a long time. Hang in there and lean on your support systems. This really is not only a physically challenging thing to do but also a mental challenge. Keep telling yourself it will get better and it will.

      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.
