Prrite...

Did your doctor tell you that you had a certain amount he wanted you to loose? I was told 15 lbs and I too am on my 10 day and lost 10 lbs...

I have my final all weigh-in on Friday, I doubt I will meet the full 15 lbs :-(.

Maybe 12?.

I have been having my 3 Protein shakes a day, some cooked broccoli or asparagus and broths. Still wish I could loose the full 15.

Good luck!

@Dawn....

I wasn't given any amount to lose. However, the NUT said that one "typically" could lose between 8 and 40 pounds. I'm not sweating it. I'm actually tickled to see this come off now....it's just that much less I have to lose later! Don't stress to much over it....115 hours - (8 am 7/21), we'll have different issues to deal with. Just remember,as a master of cliche's....Rome wasn't built in a day, and time heals all wounds. Stay positive - you got this! :D

      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.
