So, I had my sleeve on the 16th. I am still on liquids. Things are going well. I'm not having any issues getting Protein or fluids in. Which has me kind of curious. When I get to the next stage how will I know I'm full because right now I'm beginning to feel a little hunger.

You don't want to go all the way to "full." Satiety is the goal: "I feel as though I can eat another spoon or two, but I don't need them. I'm satisfied." Eating slowly and pausing between bites is a sure way to recognize the moment. Not taking the extra bites is one of the factors in the lives of people who've never been obese or maybe not even overweight.

It's great that you're able to get the proteen and fluids.

Nothing special really. Just sugar free hot chocolate and I add gene pro flavorless Protein powder to it. It is a tablespoon=30 grams. I also can tolerate Isopure fruit punch diluted with the diet ocean spray cranberry juice. I have other Isopure flavors I haven't tried to "mix" yet because I can't find what I did with the stupid bottles, lol.

How do you know you're full? Here is my true story from last nights night, Xmas eve dinner. I was sitting at a table across from some people I did not know. I apparently ate one bite too much and had a cross between a hiccup and a burp. I hoped it wasn't loud but when I looked up, I was embarrassed to see laughter in their eyes. Well I said excuse me, put my fork down and sat quietly until I could safely leave e that table. I hope I never have that experience again

      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.
