Yes but I can have Soups now. I am sick of that sweet tart flavoring that is in all the calorie free Water they sell. On another note I am coming back home off the trail. It beat the hell out of me and I'm a bag of mush today.

Oh man, that's harsh. I hear you about the 'sweet tart' flavors; it all seems like kiddie food. Stay tough and win!

And yeah, I'm starting to fall in love with my measuring cups. They are my portal into food.

Hi all, sounds like most everyone is okay. This has been way harder than I thought. The first week post op intense and hard to swallow anything. The second week have been feeling real weak, weak muscles hardly any strength, trying to walk or bike a couple of miles a day but it is a real struggle. food shakes even Water hard to take in. The last four days I have had intense stomach hunger pains, but when I try to shake or eat something I get really nauseated and have to take the phenergan Also super bad diarrhea. I added potassium,multivitamins and prilosec Saw the surgeon today thinks everything will be okay, just need a little more time and I can add soft foods. I really need to get back to work. Do you think this is all normal. I have lost #16 pounds. My skin is really dry and itchy,did anyone experience this?

@@abs0253 I use something called Pocket Protein. It comes in two different flavors, strawberry and berry. You just add it to your Water. They are 15 or 20 grams per pouch. Try looking them up, they may even send you a sample or a coupon?

      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.
