So today I started my pre-op diet and it was not pretty. After taking in my Protein Shake I still felt hungry sooooooo......lol. I ate a string cheese. Then after my second Protein shake for lunch I ate 1/3rd of a Protein Bar to get me through to dinner. Amazing dinner was absolutely amazing. I had a piece of skinless salmon baked with little EVOO and kale salad on the side. Yes I finally got the satisfaction of feeling full. I am praying that tomorrow brings me good joy and I don't have to cheat. Hey look at the bright side I cheated with protein just in a solid form lol. Before starting my journey I would have never chose those items as a snack heck for nothing to go in my body so baby steps is great. 13 more days to go for surgery YYYYYAAAAYYYY!!!!!

I understand the hunger, the first three days are the worst and then it gets much easier. If you really can't make it through without cheating, you might want to check with your doctor or nutritionist to see what they suggest you do. Much luck to you.

Thank you ladies. I think I will be ok seeing as though I can have the one meal at the end of the day. I think it was a shock factor. Today is a new day and I don't want to ruin my chance at a healthier me. Blessings to you both!

I will be getting my date soon, then the dreaded pre-op diet. I'm extremely nervous about it because I know I'll be hungry as all get out! I've seen others say what @@*susan* said, though. It's supposed to be better after a few days. Good luck!!

      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.
