Not every doctor has you doing Protein from day one, so you might want to check. My dr and nutritionist say no Protein Drinks for the first week. I was worried I'd get hungry but I didn't at all. All I had week one was Water and Jello.

Same here on the Protein. startes mine on day 7 post op,

They never told me about any Proteins as well, my first 15 days I was only with sugar free drinks and broths. I went to a nutricionist and she gave me this milk called Glucerna which reduced my white tongue, it was do to dehydration. I was not drinking Water at all and left too much time in between my ounces of liquids. You should be taking little sips of Water every 10/15 mins. Therefore you are always hydrated. I'll attached the diet my nutritionist gave me so I could rehydrate again.

      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.
