Just thinking how last week this time, I was preparing myself to be at the hospital at 5:30 am on Friday, June 17th. One week down and many more to go. I don't regret my decision, but I surely cannot wait to get to the soft food diet. Taking my granddaughters to Disney in two weeks. Will be the first time I can't have a turkey drumstick lol. I know I'll be find though. Not interested in cheating when I know what food tastes like. I'm just ready to be off of meds, free of joint pain and living a more active lifestyle with my family.

@@Sleeve it to Beaver One week has gone by fast, but still not fast enough lol! I keep thinking if I can only get to the football season, which is like 8 Sunday's away, I'll be fine! So bored with this pre op diet and not being able to drink cold Water.

      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.
