2 weeks PO

you are still around to talk about it!!

the word "ONLY" regarding weight loss

people have been shot for less :huh: ;)

no such thing as ONLY losing 1, 2, 3 etc lbs

4 lbs in second week is great

you are in the pureed phase

verify with your NUT or surgeon how much you "should" be having

if you are eating too little, they will tell you

good luck :)

Thanks you guys! Im happy about the loss dont get me wrong!

However I ment that I need inspo regarding pureed foods. Does anyone have anything suggestions? By eating to little I ment 2-3 times per day, but I should be eating 6 times per day. I just dont feel hunger and so I forget to eat, also cuz nothing tastes good.

chicken or tuna salad, chicken vegetable Soup, yams, vegetable soup with Protein. This was pretty much my purée diet. Oh and sugar free Applesauce. It's a short stage thankfully.

      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.
