The liquid bari diet that was given to me also had sugar free Jello. Are you taking your Protein shakes? Hang in there you can do it, can’t eat anything until you are cleared for stage II (puree) Mine starts in a couple of days. Trust I know how you feel, because I am counting the hours lol. But its a small sacrifice for your health and life ;) You can do it!

My sweet husband made a pot of red Beans and sausage and strained some of the juice out for me. It seems to stick better with me than just plain broth. I keep telling myself I can make it till Thursday which is the day I can move to cream Soups and cream of wheat.

Can you add unflavored Protein to your broth? Maybe that will fill you up more. Are you on Clear liquids only? No Protein shakes yet? You can try the Isopure clear Protein drinks from GNC. I have never tried them, some people like them. The Protein might hold you for a little while.

Also, are you taking an acid reducer? Sometimes acid can feel like hunger.

Good luck, you can do it.

      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.
