I think I'll pass this time. I still have Spaghetti Squash Casserole to eat, Beef & Barley Soup to make, and some new P3s to try out.

I will be cheering y'all on, though.

@@Elode I will do a modified liquid diet. I will do two meals of liquid/protein shakes and one meal of grilled fish. No carbs!!!

I need to get back on track too. I haven't gained YET, but have slipped up here and there and need to kick the carb habit too especially before Christmas. I want to lose another 5 pounds so I have some bounce room for Christmas Cookies LOL.

@@jess9395 Girl, I'm on my second 32 oz mug of Water and a cup of the chicken broth. My stomach is like ummmm, no! Peeing is the worst!! The first two days are always the hardest for me. I wish I had some of the PB cookie. It's one of my favorites. I have a tub of the strawberry mousse, mint chocolate chip, chocolate truffle & orange one. I'm not feeling any of those. I had a Atkins royal Dark chocolate and I like them a lot but I'm waiting on my Premier Protein shakes, they have a lot more Protein in them. I'll be lucky to get 3 in today. We (stomach) are going through a battlefield right now. I will be taking some zzzquil by 7 since I have to get up at 3:00am for work so I'm cramming it in now. Zzzquil is my saving grace because if not I would go nuts at night eating!

@@Elode, As of tomorrow, I'm on the last 5 days of my post-op liquid diet. It would be nice to join in your challenge and finish these last 5 days strong and to wrap up WEEK 5 of liquids only! Count me in--if nothing else, I will be a cheerleader for those of you not required to do it right now????

I'm in. In fact I already started 2 days ago. Dr recommended it since I haven't lost as much as he wanted me to. 20 pounds in 2 months isn't enough for him,

Lol yeah the peeing is the worst! I am sitting here at the HS waiting to pick up my freshman and weighing the pros and cons of trying to find a bathroom on campus!

I can't live without my PB Cookie Protein shake, I put the powder in yogurt, oatmeal, basically everything! Mint choc is my second fave. Hope you get your Premier Protein soon!

And yikes that's early, wow I would be taking zzzquil too!

      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.
