My sister and niece were sleeved and tried everything and really really loved the shakes from body nutrition.. And they sell samples.. Ordered quite a few different flavors.. They say your taste change after surgery so didn't want to get too many in a big tub and then tastes change and not like them.. Decisions decisions

I just bought my Gas-X strips and a box of Premier Protein shakes. I will still have some boxes of broth, sf Jello, Bariatric Advantage shakes left from my preop diet. Need to start packing my bag!

The only preop I have to do is a liquid diet on Tuesday. I plan on getting packed and go shopping tomorrow. I was on vacation when I got the call last Tuesday that I was approved and had preop the following morning. Everything went through so fast, it has only been three weeks since I first went in for a consultation.

I'm June 23rd (Tuesday) my pre-op diet was not very restrictive just the day before liquids only. But I must admit I did have a few last minute food funerals so I decided to do two days of only liquids to make up for my mess up. Really looking forward to my surgery but my nerves are going crazy and I can't seem to stay off this site reading! Wishing eveyone a successful surgery day!

I'm also scheduled for the 23rd! I have a two day clear liquid diet that I started today. One more day and then I'm on my way! Good luck to you.

      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.
