I'm on a two week liquid diet, I really wonder why so many doctors are different.

I know my friend had to do a week prior to surgery it all depends on the insurance too. And the doctor too i think it also depends on the results of your blood tests. With me everything came out normal just that I'm pre-diabetic but other then that my liver was ok. It all depends I asked my nutritionist the same and she said that every doctor is different

I had my surgery in Brooklyn, NY. Best surgery every! After the surgery--you likely won't feel hunger. I just had mine done on January 6th and my ONLY regret is that I didn't do it 10 years sooner. Just remember, the sleeve is not a cure-all but if you are diligent and try your best the rewards are going to be so wonderful: You're going to be more fit, you're life is going to be extended--and you are going to feel better and more confident. Everyone can tell you about their process, but at the end of the day: THIS is your experience, and it is unique and individual to you. NY has excellent surgeons--NY is a very competitive place for doctors--so trust your surgeon and do your best, and you will be fine. I am wishing you a lot of success and positivity!

      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.
