Wow @sleevesia and here I am complaining about wanting something to eat. I am sorry you're such problems. I had a lot of neck and shoulder pain about 4 days post op but it was definitely gas and it didn't go away for about 2 days. Lets just hope that whatever is happening is only temporary and the worst part is already behind you. Take care and I hope you feel better soon! I will f/u to check on you and if possible, try to get your Protein, Water and Vitamins down. Good Luck.

I suggest the Isopure drinks as they can count as both Protein (a whopping 40 grams for each one) and fluids (20 ounces) they have all sorts and today I am having coconut. They are clear like Water. I also added clear beef broth and unflavored Protein powder to cream of mushroom Soup and thinned with Water last night and strained the mushroom chunks out and it was tasty. Had about 2-3 ounces. I am 2 days out of surgery. Has finally is moving also. Still taking the pain meds though.

      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.
