P3 by Oscar Mayer for your purse. Order Soups at restaurants and add unflavored Unjury powder you pre measure into little plastic one ounce sauce containers (restaurant supply stores like Smart and Final carry them). If you have Lindora Clinics or Medical Weight Loss Centers they carry powdered lemonade that has 12 grams of Protein. Don't pay any mind to what other people think about what you order, our lives no longer revolve around food!

Those starkist tuna packets are excellent for storing in a purse or gymbag. Lots of Protein and low calorie. I love peanuts, so I always have some of those on hand. Jerky was my best friend for months when traveling. Otherwise deli meats and hummus are my mainstays.

Oh, chili for tailgating!

@@Hello new me fish! Fish is healthy and soft on the stomach. Most restaurants have some kind of fish. Hopefully you like fish because if you don't this was a big fat waste of your time :)

I wasn't a big fish fan pre-op, but it is quickly becoming a new favorite of my new tummy post-op.

P3 are a definite. I take them to work with me sometimes when I don't have time to make a proper lunch. I keep a stock in my fridge, since they are quick and easy. I agree that I have to remember that life no longer revolves around food. I hope it gets easier with time. Thanks for the advice on the Protein Powder with Soup. It isn't something that I have tried yet.

      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.
