I started my liquid diet today.... The Protein Shakes are making me gag a little..not going to lie. I diluted them with Water which is making it a little easier to take in. It will be a long 2 weeks but it will totally be worth it!

I started today too!!! Felt great this morning, now I feel like Im counting down the minutes to lunch... lol... Luckily my surgeon ok'd Herbalife shakes which I like, so that makes it a little easier for me.

Good Luck! Here's to hoping the next two weeks fly by :)

My surgery is 3/3. I can't believe it is so close. I have been on my liquid diet for a week now and it's not as bad as I expected not really hungry.

Mine is March 10th. I am super excited! I have all the things I need. I have picked out the shakes I like, The only thing left to do is clean the house top to bottom and make my room relaxing since I will be recouperating for 2 weeks in it. I plan on getting some new candles to burn and just loving myself while I am healing. What a vacation...lol. Ill make the best of it.

@ I have Synthex-6 vanilla ice cream and also bought almond and cashew milk. i also have chocolate Premier Protein. I have also bought the unjury chicken Soup. I have tried Unjury chocolate and I like that as well. I also would recommend Chike. it is so good. Make sure you buy some PB2 powder to doll up your vanilla and you can also but the SF Torini. I have even covered the basis of Water. I have lemon flavored torini SF to mix in my Water. I love variety so as not to get bored quickly. i start my 2 week diet tomorrow, Today is food funeral.

@ marissa75 I would like to add that Vitamin Water zero is something I have stashed away as well. Like I said...Variety is key for me.

      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.
