Hi so new at this but my surgery is January 13 so excited so nervous so hungry.

I'm on the pre op diet just liquids and i still feel so hungry. Any advice ?

The hunger feeling could be a couple of things...

Make sure you are drinking your required Protein shakes on a set schedule. About the same schedule everyday.

It could be acid, try taking some Zantac or something like that.

Try drinking some Water too..I know more liquid. My pee has never been so clear lol.

I drink 5 powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury shakes a day (one can be made into chicken flavored soup)

I can have 6 servings a day of s/f pudding, unflavored applesauce, s/f Jello, oatmeal, light yogurt and 1/2 cup cooked veggies

I add the cooked veggies to my Soup so my mind thinks it's vegetable soup lol

I've been adding seasoning to all of it so its not so bland.

Finally, after a whole lot of waiting and insurance deliberating, and jumping through a ton of hoops, I'm scheduled for 1/15 -- NEXT FRIDAY!!

I'm so very ready, but almost equally as terrified. I told myself through this whole process that the people who had second thoughts and freaked out close to surgery were probably insane. But now here I am, having second thoughts and freaking out. I guess I would be crazy if I didn't panic; this is a HUGE lifestyle change. But I won't back out. I swear it.

I am being sleeved on the 18th. My preop diet is 2 shakes a day. A piece of fruit in between meals and a dinner with 6 oz of lean Protein, vegetables and 1 tbsp olive oil or 2 tbsp if sf Salad Dressing. When I get hungry I drink Water or coffee.

14th for me! Any tips for the clear liquid phase? It's hard breaking up with my long term friend - food!

[sherryjntexas 6]

Cindyw41 - what phase are you in? Are you straining the veggies or eating them?
