Ricotta cheese with marinara sauce and melted motts. Deli chicken meat rolled like an enchilada with Beans inside melted cheese and enchilada sauce on top. Chicken, kidney beans, onion and a lil diced pickel and some cheese crumbles with your fav Salad Dressing. Broccoli cheese Soup with diced up ham in it (add a lil flavorless Protein power). Turkey lunch mean rolled up with avocado and bacon. Roast beef rolled up with some provolone Dip it in a lil mayo and horseradish. Make your own sushi without the rice mix a lil crab with mayo and saracha add avocado and cucumber roll in seaweed. Fried egg with a lil sugar free Syrup. Cottage cheese with a lil cool whip and sugar free Jello sprinkled in... There are so many options. Get creative! Good luck!

I hate to break this to you, but that's the post-op diet too. It's even more restrictive immediately postop and for many months after that. Protein, veggies, yogurt. That's about what I eat.

There are a ton of recipes on Pinterest. Search gastric sleeve (or bypass) recipes. It really helps with variety!

      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.
