Hello to all! My surgery is June 30 in Houston and today is my 4th day on my 14 day pre-op liquid diet...I'm already miserable! The sweet shakes are getting to me and I want something different. I tried the Unjury chicken Soup and it was ok. My doctors office gave me 2 huge bags of Bariatric Advantage powders. But I like the ready to drink Atkins and Pure Protein much better. I emailed my NUT today and she is concerned that in order to get the amounts I need the Pure Protein is too much. It's 23 grams a can and 120 calories. They are requiring me to get in atleast 700 calories. My protein intake isn't the problem it's getting all the calories as well without having too much protein...any suggestions and anything else besides the sweet shakes? Thanks in advance ????

I'm on Day 5 and am becoming addicted to the Premier Protein ready-made shakes. Crystal Light Liquid is my other favorite to keep guzzling the Water. I'm down 19.6lbs so it's worth it - go July 1st team, GO!

      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.
