Hi everyone, I was sleeved on the 19th of July. I've been doing really well. I've already lost 30 pounds since doing the 2 week liquid diet and the surgery. This was by far the best decision for me. I've increased my walking distance evey couple days, so I'm up to 2 miles and I've managed to get a Protein and a half in a day.

My question is how are you all getting your protein in? I can't go on puree until day 20 and I'm looking forward to some chicken and salmon and humus and cottage cheese.

Any suggestions? I use the Premier Protein so that makes part of it easy.... , looking for something else.

Yeah the Protein is sometimes a challenge to get in... but Premiere Protein Shakes are great, really helps that they're 30 grams per shake. I'm struggling to get all my protein in but I'm making efforts!!

      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.
