Well, I'm on day 3 of my 2 week pre-op liquid diet and I can honestly say that finally today, I don't want to pull someones head off or gnaw on my own arm to survive ;) Seriously though, I'm doing fairly well and not starving. I think I'm starting to adjust and making good progress. How is everyone else doing?

I'm just dayone...but I was doing 2-3 days a week for about a month now. I'll be glad to get to day FOUR. Then I will know I will be OK...Also doing half caffiene and then using surgery as the breaking point to no caffiene. Keep up the good work!

That's awesome! Such inspiration! I do not have a surgery date yet, so I have not started anything. I'm still deciding where to go.

Keep up the good work!

I gave up caffeine when I first started my 3-month supervised diet so that I wouldn't have to deal with the headaches late in the game. Thankful that I did that !!! Good luck and can't wait to hear how things are going :)

Good luck on your decision :) It was the hardest and best decision of my life and I'm so excited about it.

I'm also on day 3. Luckily, my Dr only required me to do 1 week liquid vs the 2 weeks that most of his other patients have had to do. I'm having the opposite reaction than you are. Days 1 and 2 were great for me. Today, I'm hungrier than I have been the other 2 days. It might be because I'm at home rather than at work, so I'm not constantly busy. Other than that, I'm honestly surprised at how full I have been feeling.

I'm on day 4 of 14 and I have to say that I have been pleasantly surprised that it really is not bothering me. I was shocked when I hopped on the scale this morning, I am down 9 lbs!

I'm on day 7 I think it took me till day 5 to not get crazy about food. Now I can talk about it and watch it and be ok. I still get the headaches and the "hangry" moments. lol but good luck to us all and pray that we don't cheat tomorrow.

      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?

      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.
