In "soft food" I can now add PB2 powder (loveloveloveit) to my shakes and I can have creamy PB for a "meal" I get some that is no sugar/salt added.

So, for my diet, from my nut Peanut Butter is ok.

There are alot of foods you can try. tuna, baked fish, salmon, cottage cheese, hummus, Beans (add cheese), ricotta bake (recipe online), greek yogurt, home-made Protein Shakes (watch sugar), chicken salad..

Experiment and see what works.

I add Protein powders to everything, including my morning eggs and my afternoon yogurt. I want it up to 100+g.

Fish, ricotta, cottage cheese worked well for me until I could handle solids. Peanut Butter has around 150 calories for 7g of Protein so isn't great as a main source of Protein.< /p>

Peanut Butter and nuts in general will betray you.

Calorically dense........beware.

Also they have high potential as grazing foods......beware.

      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.
