I haven't started mine yet but it's not liquid - 2 weeks high Protein low carb, no caffeine, lots of Water. Which I decided to start already just because I figure it can't hurt and I still have a few pounds to lose before I meet the surgeon in a few weeks. I only have to do a clear liquid diet for the day before surgery.

mine wasn't all liquid either. I just had to get a min of 80g Protein while staying under 800 calories for two weeks prior to surgery. My dietician said that a lot of practices will recommend all liquid just to make it easy to do that and that I could do all liquid if I wanted. I did a shake for Breakfast (easy grab and go on the way to work), chicken or fish with steamed broccoli for dinner and lunch was sometimes a shake, sometime chicken or a pouch of tuna.< /p>

      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.
