of course anytime, thats why this group was made to support and ask for advice and vent. Don't pay mind to those misreable people that act like bullies. Do you!

No, I won't pay them any mind. I'm glad we all have people to support us and that the bullies are few and far between.

Did you have to have a psych evaluation to be approved for surgery? Be monitored by a dietician for a few months? I understand that these measures are required by insurance to be approved for surgery. Maybe you were not ready if you didn't do these things. I hope you become compliant for your own safety.

I did those things. I was and am ready. There's a big difference between a mistake and noncompliance.

Thank you for sharing. Thank you for being vulnerable enough to share this "mistake", or as I like to call it this instance of just being human.

You know the risks, you didn't come here for lectures you came here for support. Thank you for sharing with us and reminding us all that this journey is going to be a challenge. I agree with the other posts, check in with your surgeon, keep up the counseling and just care well for yourself. You've got this!

Thank you knpoole, I spoke with him already. He wasn't mad at all and said it was fine but that he wants me to stay away from all sweets for the rest of my life due to my addiction and something about how cells have memory when it comes to consuming sugar. I'm fine and doing well. He's please with my progression. Thank you for you're support friend.

Yes, thank you for checking in on me. I'm doing well. I'll be advanced to chicken and veggies and fruit this Friday and I'm so so so excited. I'm not eating very much though. I don't wanna eat actually. It doesn't fill good to be full anymore. It's just uncomfortable. I'm not over eating either since im stuggling to eat these 2oz. Is that normal?

I'm hoping I'll have more success with desiring to eat if I can have veggies and fruit.

Sounds normal to me. Getting all your Protein in is hard; adding chicken will probably make it easier tho, since it's a high Protein food. What about eggs? Have you been allowed to add eggs yet?

      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.
