So... I was scheduled for 7/21 but my surgeon moved me to 7/11. This is good and bad. The good: I work better under pressure (the liquid diet) the bad: the pressure of the liquid diet. Other than that I am ready! Day 1 of liquid diet, no problem, this is Day 2 of this liquid, have a little headache. I hope this will go away. Anyone else experience HA during this period?

@@betterme38 my first day on the liquid diet too. It wasn't bad at all for me and I wasn't tempted of eating food even when my coworkers where eating right in front of me .... But I know it's going to get very boring the next 13 days just consuming Water, ice and Protein. Good luck on your pre-op diet

Pre-op diet doesn't start until July 2nd but I've been trying to follow it early so I can lose as much weight as possible. However couldn't pass up a glass of sancerre tonite. Oenophiles you know what I'm talking about !

That's awesome!

I have cancelled my surgery. Since I have a lower BMI, my Holistic doctor has persuaded me to try the HCG Protocol first as an alternative to surgery.

I will starting Phase 1 in one and a half weeks.

Good luck!!

Good luck! What is that protocol?

      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.
