This will be the menu for today, if I ever actually get out of bed:

Breakfast: Spinach and cheese omelet. As a side note, it is really hard to make a one egg omelet, but it can be done! And, it is adorably tiny when finished!

lunch and dinner: Grilled chicken and broccoli, just because it is already cooked and portioned and will just need to be popped in the microwave. Which reminds me, it is amazing how fast 2-3 ounces of food heats up in the microwave compared to what I used to eat.

Snacks: Protein shakes and a few nuts. One last observation, I never liked cashews before surgery, now I think they are my favorite nut. Is that weird?

I'm in maintenance, AND on vacation, so my menu is gonna seem a little "off"....

Had a homemade chocolate covered pretzel/peanut cluster with my coffee this morning.

Then a small bowl of steel cut oats with flax seed, walnuts, blueberries and milk around mid morning.

Drank about 16oz of Water while driving.

Just finished a mushroom Swiss butter burger from Culver's (no bun)...now I'm super stuffed.

Gonna drink another 16oz Water starting in about 45 min

Gonna have a 24oz piña colada Protein smoothie with 1/2 banana blended in later this afternoon.

Family get together to play Mexican Dominos tonight. We are ordering pizza and I will eat the toppings and probably some leftover Christmas goodies. Maybe even have a cocktail or two.

And I will finish the day with a big cup of Sleepytime tea.

I'm actually looking forward to returning home and getting back to my normal food next week. WAY to much sugar and junk this week, but no regrets.

      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.
