I was just wondering the same thing. I can't believe I'm only 3 days from my travel date and four from surgery. It seemed like it was taking forever and now it feels like it flew by!

I drank Gatorade and Water. I wasn't hungry (and couldn't eat anyway). I did have broth at the hotel before leaving (all 5 tablespoons of it). That was plenty.

Right after surgery, for a week or two or three (depending on your doc's instructions), you won't be *eating* anything. Just sip-sip-sipping Water and other liquids to try to meet your 64-ounces / day minimum of liquids.

I know. I thought it as implied that this would be like broth or some other liquid.

I tried to get broth but nothing was really available in SD. I got a couple Protein shakes but could not finish them. I wasn't hungry or craving at all from SD to NY.

      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.
