Countdowntosleeve and handymannynyc1, I ,too started the Liquid Protein diet (on June 6).Having sleeve on June 22. Doing this preop liquid diet definately is no walk in the park, but not as difficult as I thought it would be! I think we need to be very proud of ourselves for having the motivation and disipline to do this !! A tip: whenever I feel weak willed and want to "cheat" , I watch "My 600 Ib Life", or "Fat Doctor" online!

I have bought Campbell's bean with bacon Soup and cream of potato soup. I blend it in the blender and then heat it up in a coffee cup to drink. It is much more satisfying than the other types of boxed creamed Soups. I also have a Protein Shake in the morning. I put a 90 calorie yoplait yogurt, and 1 cup of non fat milk, 1 scoop of Protein Powder, and some frozen fruit. My nutritionist said that was o.k. to have. In the evenings I have 1 Protein Drink from a container (premier) and some more soup. I'm hungry all the time, I'm hoping it will start to get better soon.

Definitely check with your NUT. My program would not have allowed potato soup pre-op but would have post-op. The pre-op diet for me was high-protein no carbs/starches.

Try adding flavorless whey powder to broth. It is a lot more filling.

      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.
