Day of surgery weighted in 203lbs. 10/4/16 weight 193lbs.

For two days I'm feeling hungry often, sick of chocolate Protein, diet snapples which are to dann sweet, and broths. I'm starting to feel depressed because I no longer desire to cook for my husband since I can't eat. He's a very good provider and hard worker who deserves a hot meal after work! I don't like the funny taste in my mouth, my chap lips or the fact that once I woke up after the surgery my back was hurting so bad and it continue like that for five days.

I am on liquid diet for 4 weeks no Jello allowed. Something gotta give before I eat some sf-jello soon! I like the fact that my ankles or feet doesn't hurt since losing the extra pounds. Good luck everybody I know by mid November I will be good once I am able to eat something other than drinking.

Can you do SF popsicles?

Those have been my lifeblood. Feels like a treat and because I have to eat them (and get to chew them) in a limited period of time, they seem to be the best way to get some liquids down. I eat about 3-4 a day. Thus far, those and beef broth, have been the only liquids I have enjoyed. I got the tropical ones by PopSicle brand. Very tasty and different.

This morning, I made a cup of Decaf and used my choc Protein shake as "creamer". That has been a nice treat as well. Something different.

      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.
