I am well. So far I am on puréed foods and my stomach can stomach it all thus far. Tomorrow I begin stage 4. How are you?

Hi there,

I am also from Suffolk County and had my surgery at Stony Brook on 8/18/16. I was on a liquid diet one week before and 3 weeks after the surgery. I just stared soft foods. The liquid diet is rough but you have to remember the long term goal to get the weight off and be a healthier you. I could not actually believe how fast the month went. Before you know it all of this will be behind you and you will also be on soft foods.

Are you also allowed puréed Soups that helped fill me up ?

I am down 30 pounds as of yesterday and feeling good. Please feel free to ask me questions if you like.

      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.
