There are Soups available through the BariatricPal Store that are highly recommended by my nutritionist. High in Protein. Low in salt and carbs. Salty is out there for you during the preop diet.

Ok almost at the end of day 1 liquid diet. It's tough but the puréed Campbell chicken noodle Soup helped. I'm at 1000 cal and ok. I'm starting to get nervous about the surgery and thinking well if I can do this liquid diet why do I need the surgery? Could use some reminders!

Liquid diets aren't sustainable so the weight would come back on when you started eating normally. It's normal to have doubts but think about the benefits of surgery! You can get thru the pre-op diet and will be in a better position post-op. Stay strong!

      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.
