I am on day 3 of my pre-op diet. The first two days, I had a headache, but I think it could have been because I wasn't drinking caffeinated coffee. Today, I did not have the headache. I have been low on energy, very tired, since I started. I know it's tough, but it does get better.

Yeah, it is going to stink. Thankfully I only have one week and can have yogurt etc. I start 7/11.

I am so thankful we don't have to do an all liquid diet in our program! It's going to be hard enough doing 3 shakes and a Lean Cuisine type meal for 2 weeks!

Thank you . It's not that's it's so much as hard i think it's just the thought of you not being able to eat food . Because I don't eat that much anyway. But last night I had a dream about eating chocolate lmao. And my Meal Replacement powder is just not a good taste at all . The only thing helping me is that I can have sugar free Jello sugar free Popsicle sticks diet Snapple and crystal light . And I drink diet Snapple and crystal light all the time so it's really making me feel a lot better lol

I'm on day one of a two week liquid diet. I. HAVE. A. HEADACHE. unlike anything I have experienced in a long time. I already cheated by eating one slice of turkey. I need prayers and divine intervention to make it. Tomorrow will be better. Yes, tomorrow will be better, right?

I've been craving Chinese food and idk why [emoji24][emoji24][emoji24] and I actually didn't have to do my first day because that's when I hit the insurance approval but it's still kind of like second day ( suppose to be third )

I have the low energy too. Honestly, I've been grumpy too a bit. It may be all in my head.

      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.
