I cheated off and on during my pre surgical diet. I was supposed to be on all liquids likely because I'm on the higher end of bmi. I did get a Jr bacon chee a cpl times in my first week. My doc told me a week before my surgery I could have chicken because I told him I was starving all the time. I'd have a chicken breast and I had boiled eggs too. And the day before my all clear liquid diet aka 2 days before surgery I had chocolate mochi. Like, more of them than I'd like to admit. I still lost 35 lbs in 11 days. My surgery was on the 20th. No problems. No complications. And I'm healing perfectly. A pickle is a Veggie. No, it won't kill you or complicate anything. Have a pickle . I won't judge ;)

I used the pickle pops in the first couple of weeks post-op too. Really helped with the savory craving and helped get in some fluids. Very high in salt (which I am sure you know) so I probably wouldn't have more than 1 a day (post-op I mean).

blend that pickle! You can blend pretty much ANYTHING even early out. I blended 5 goldfish crackers b/c I was sure I was gonna scream if I had one more sweet (jello/protein drinks/popcicles) thing to eat

I'm laughing at the pickle sucking images that come to mind......

Glad you feel relieved.

Later on....after you advance onto solid foods you'll be able to enjoy them with no problem. They come as sides to a lot the stuff I order at work cafeteria or in restaurants......chicken sandwiches, burgers, etc. I'll eat the burger or chicken and then have the pickle as sort of a dessert. Works for me.

Hang in there.....you are going to be amazed at how easy this wls is to live with down the road. So easy to find a way to win.

      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.
