It's funny how things can change in a couple days - I had a fill last monday the 5th and really didn't try much solids till around thursday-friday (I had an inkling I was tight) - allright lets be honest - I knew it but wanted to believe that I would loosen after a couple days and then I would lose more weight and the world would keep going round (please forgive my self-rationalizing idiotic mind frame) come the weekend I really couldn't keep anything solid down and knew that part of my new 'healthy relationship' with food (in progress) was to be able to eat solids - we were not meant to live on Protein Shakes no matter how much Protein they have in them. SO - Monday I went in and they took a little over 1/2 of the previous fill out. I still feel a little tight but the NP said I would be irritated/swollen for a couple days. we'll see - so forgive my lack of posting.

Today:

B: mocha cheesecake Protein Shake

S: 0.3 oz pirate's booty Snacks, 2 hershey kisses

L: 1/2 c. chicken tortilla Soup w/ 3 saltines crumbled and soaked in it - about a tbls came back up (maybe the crackers though)

D: malted mocha cheesecake protein shake

kawasakichick: my new favorite way to make my mocha cheesecake shake is 1 premade muscle milk lite chocolate protein shake (i've also used high protein or optima slim fast chocolate shakes with good results - muscle milk lite nutrients are better though)

i throw the shake into the blender (today it was slightly frozen from being outside in the frigid air and it was even better) and add to it 3.5 oz (1/2 small carton) nonfat plain greek yogurt (i use fage brand), 1 tsp espresso powder, 2-3 packets splenda and puree!

i recently started adding 1 tbls malted milk powder (only 30 cal) and it tastes like a ice cream fountain shake. I also add 1/8 c. benefiber - i don't really need the Fiber for regularity purposes but my dr has always said even the healthiest people don't get enough fiber.

      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.
