If this makes you feel better - I think the preop diet is so much worse than postop. I have so much more will power after surgery. It makes it so much easier!

Agreed, near the end of the 2 week liquid diet I was so miserable but it's so much better after the surgery. Good luck!

Thanks for the heads up Ladies...I don't really know what to expect before or after surgery....The restricted dieting is such a mental thing....as long as I stay busy..I don't think of chewing!

I just want to say that I hate all you 2 week liquid dieters.

- a 12-week liquid dieter

Why 12 weeks? That's cruel and unusual punishment!

My surgeon is a poopie head. B)

It's funny because I just saw him for a 4 week followup from start of liquid diet and he even admitted I was ready for surgery. We went over my weight loss, my liver function results (normalized liver function tests after 2 yrs of high/dangerously high), my HBA1c drop (from 6.1 to 5.7 -- 1 yr ago was 7.9), etc.

Guess they didn't believe I'd follow the premise of the diet and not lose weight. Oh well. Good news is it's post-semester (due to them moving my finals for me closer by a week) so.. not gonna interfere with a lot.

Just hope I'm not as tired post-op as I was at the start of the liquid diet. I feel like running around.

      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.
