Hi everyone. Just found this app trying to research everything I can to reduce nervous. I have may 26th day on my 44th b-day. I go the 6th for my pre op.

What are people's favorite Liquid Protein. So many don't taste good and I don't want to spend money on something I won't use.

This is the month for us all. I'm scheduled for May 12. I'm only doing a 1 week liquid diet which I start on Monday. I'm so nervous about that. I'm so ready for this to be over. I been second guessing myself all week hoping I'm doing the right thing. This is a big life change. I think it's just nerves of the unexpected

May 20th here...Louisiana to Tijuana at OCC with Dr. Ortiz...nervous but excited!

I wish you well!! I'm in southern Louisiana. Waiting for an appointment to get started. If I don't hear back, I'll call them. I sent an email for contact.

Any suggestions in the Lafayette, Louisiana area? If this question is in the wrong forum, please disregard. I'm still learning how to manage these threads and topics.

Sincerely,

S.

      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.
