I know the feeling. This is my second day and i was in tears. I broke down for Campbell Soup. How solid can a wet noodle be? Headache is relieving as i sip my soup.

It gets easier! I did it a little over two months ago and I've already forgot about it. Stay strong!

I'm right there with ya! My pre-op diet was harder (psychologically) than going through surgery or anything I went through post-op. I think what made it so hard was the uncertainty I felt. I had been chasing the dream of being a "normal" weight (and failing) for so long that I couldn't bring myself to believe that WLS would be a success and I was just wasting my time. BUT I WAS WRONG!!!! ;-)

      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.
