First time writing on here. Got sleeved 1/19/17

Came home Friday afternoon and could only drink Water

Saturday I drank one full Isopure and one water bottle but didn't add up to the 64oz

Today I did all the 64oz and I feel great!

It's just hard seeing everyone around me eat and enjoy it but I keep telling myself that I will eat again and this will all be worth it.

Hope everyone has a wonderful journey

Congratulations! I was also sleeved on the same day. I have not had a day that I could get up to 64oz yet but I'm able to consume a couple of Protein shakes so far. Good luck!

I was using an isolate but switched to a higher calorie whey made by body forteess. The thought was to increase calories and carbs during the liquid only post opt two weeks.

      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.
