Day 2 post op the PA advanced my diet to full liquid so since Friday afternoon I've been able to have a little more then just clears, like pudding and I tried some very watery cream of wheat but mostly I've been drinking flavored water, Decaf tea and Popsicles

Thank you Izzy, i am day 6 today and not suppose to move to full liquids until wed, but feeling weak like i need more. May give drinkable yogurt a try, and very thin cream of wheat, cream Soup just for calories. I'm down 7 lbs since surgery, that's a lot in 6 days.

Tomorrow it is for me! Scared, still undecided. All I am scared of the pains. I have read that everyone has horrible gas pains and I am very worried about the post op recovery. My mind is still playing tricks with me and saying I do not need it. I try to convince myself that if I had to loose weight I would have lost it since February as I have been very diligent in exercising and keeping a track of what I eat. But no such thing happened. I have been able to lose only 15 pounds since I started this process. I have been on full liquids since Wednesday October 12th and believe me even I am shocked that I have not lost any weight. So maybe it is God telling me that it is time. I don't know I'm very confused and scared. Prayers will be appreciated.

      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.
