I am on the 3rd. Started 2 week LD today. First day has not been bad and still have one more shake to go. Hopefully that will carry me through the night.

When I started in June, I was put on a 1500-1800 cal

diet a day. Over the months I shrunk it down to where I was eating 1000 cal or less a day. Hopefully, this will help over the next weeks.

I just got my date; Tuesday, January 3rd. Heck of a way to start the year. I'm on day 2 of the Keto diet (protein liquids and one low carb, low glycemic meal daily for a week, then all liquids for a week)/ The timing sucks because of all the Christmas food. I' just tell people I have a stomach bug and that's why I'm not eating. I'm sure I'll be ready to cry come in the next few days when I want to eat and cannot, but I am keeping my focus on a healthier future with no diabetes, no sleep apnea, no high cholesterol, no gastritis, less joint pain, etc!!! Prayers and good vibes for all of us!

you're scheduled 3 days before me, I too am going to hate going through the holidays I start my liquid diet Friday and we Celebrate on Saturday (the 24th) . I also made a note that I will not be going out on NYE as I cannot take part in the shenanigans so my sister just decided to host all of our friends at her house this year. It'll all be worth it though when I can actually walk without feeling pain in my joints and can wear heels again and just be all around healthier than I currently am.

      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.
