Thank you for your response. What type of supplies should I have on hand when I come home from the hospital?

Hi Bev, Every person has different tolerance levels for different things so I would be happy to share my list I had in advance but honestly I didn't use everything I bought. The most Important thing I used was the Isopure Liquid Protein drink . You probably won't be able to tolerate shakes for a bit. I would rather have had it though then to be caught off guard. Are you on Facebook? It would be easier to upload my list there.

Hi, I sent a friend request, but the problem was there we're five people with the same spelling as you. I picked the one I thought might be you and sent a friend request.

      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.
