What kind of liquid diet are you on Poginut? IJS Bro!!! Lol!!!

I'm laughing over here because I did the same thing...I just did it prior to my liquid diet. I had a 14 day liquid diet, but felt like prior to that I was going to enjoy my favorite foods one last time!! No regrets. I've had surgery on Tuesday and am down 27 lbs since Sept 2.

That Cold Stone does look good though, and that photo was wrong! LOL!!!!

Phooey! You will be able to eat ice cream in just a few weeks! I had some last night and not for the first time

Quit torturing yourself!

I don't remember how many food funerals I had pre-op. "Last time i will be able to have this or that." :rolleyes:

Looking back now, it is really funny.

I'm been sleeved on Sept. 26th too! I second that about the ice cream. I don't know or care that the picture is wrong--- I NEED a hamburger and ice cream. Just kidding; I'm not messing up. But this liquid diet is a bit LIGHT! Luckily I only need to do 9 days instead of 14. Best wishes!

FYI, The pre op diet helped me taper off on my food intake and was easier for me because i knew that i would not be able eat hardly anything for a few weeks post op.

I pray that those of you that don't have pre op liquid diets don't have too hard of a time eating nothing, all of a sudden.

The good news is that you may not be hungry at all post op. I was not hungry for a few days and gradually felt like my body was trying to tell me i needed to eat something to survive even though i was not hungry.

Another thing i like about the sleeve is that now when I feel like i am really hungry (starving), just a little bit of food satisfies me.

I am on Day 10. Last day of pre op. A shout out to me for no cheating. Big confidence builder as I am, er , WAS, a chronic failure. First two days were headache prone. The middle 5 ok, and almost bit my husband's head off in reply to his simple talking as I got pretty crabby!!

chicken broth with ground pepper saved me some days. Frozen Popsicles another. De caf coffee and a packet of Carnation. Instant Breakfast no sugar added was a staple.

      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.
