Yes the pre op is getting easier each day. Dr told me I could have a slice of turkey or something very little along in Protein form to chew. Had a Christmas party at work today and I had a VERY small slice of turkey. I FEEL AWFUL! I guess my system has adjusted to liquids so I'm just not even gonna try anymore. I'm good! Praying for everyone.

My surgery is on 12/29 also and am excited and nervous. Yesterday was first day of 10-day pre-op diet of Protein shakes (using Mercola's Miracle whey - taste is yucky, but no artificial sweeteners). Feeling hungry and tired, but can't sleep, hence this 2 am post. Pre-op diet requires getting in at least 80 grams of Protein daily, but cannot exceed 870 calories a day. Like some of the others who have posted here, my surgery location is 3 hours from home, so have been coming to this site for information and experiences. It has been so helpful to read the posts on here.

My surgery is December 29th. I only have a 5 day pre op diet because I've lost almost 20 pounds during the last 6 months working with the dietician.

My surgery is December 29th as well! I am doing 4 shakes a day, sugar free Jello, sugar free Popsicles and broth. I am so torn though about Christmas Eve dinner and Christmas Day. I would really like to eat that day. I have wondered if I am perfect the rest of the time if I could cheat and then just be perfect the rest of the time??!!! I am close to 300 lbs so not sure if that would make a difference.

      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.
