Google Bariatric food Manual. Several PDF's that you can download should come up. It should cover all food stages.

My favorite Snacks early on was plain greek yogurt with chocolate Protein powder mixed in and then frozen to a pudding like consistency. I also liked using a tbsp of almond butter

Other Snacks I like are:

String cheese

Single Serving pack of pistachios, cashews or almonds

Peeled and diced cucumber with a splash or Sriracha and lime juice.

My surgeon's program says no Snacks.

HOWEVER, on the rare occasion that lunch doesn't agree with me (i.e., comes back up), I do have a snack an hour or so later.

A wedge of laughing cow cheese. sugar-free Jello. A slice of lunchmeat. Some cucumber slices.

My plan allows for 3 meals and. 2 Snacks. The snack is supposed to be half a premiere Protein shake; otherwise I won't get all the protein in!!

      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.
