Right? So excited. I have three days of liquid diet before surgery. Other than that I am trying to get my house in order....I work 2 jobs so always busy, and want to make sure I don't have to worry about it all when I am off.

This is exciting all of us in May. Mine is the fifteenth. I'm preparing my house for the full liquid diet so I can have a variety of things to try.

May 2nd. liquid diet starts tomorrow. I am dreading that piece and am getting quite anxious. The Dr. I see has us do 3 Protein Shakes a day and then 3oz of lean meat and veggies for dinner. I can't find a Protein Shake that I like but I'm just going to use the ones that are "okay". I am also traveling for work all of next week so that is going to make it even harder.

I did pre-op testing today. They said no news is good news.

I started my liquid diet today. I use Allmax Quickpro and I have the slim fast Protein as well as my isofemme powder so I can make my own shakes. I had two shakes so far today, a sugar free Jello, and some homemade chicken broth and Pacific organic Mushroom broth that I found very satisfying. All that and I'm only at 380 calories, I have 800 to go, I guess I'll have another shake...lol.

      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.
