Just sitting here downing yet another Protein Shake. Yep living the dream! Surgery is on May 30th and with the exception of post-op I'm so glad I never have to do this again! Not that it's extremely difficult. It's also not easy but it's tolerable. I haven't cheated once and I have no intention of doing that. Just can't wait to be done with it! I had two weeks of Protein Shakes with one meal in the evening with guidelines of course then two weeks of just Protein shakes until surgery. Some people have it easy on here with their pre-op diet mines been strict so like I said,"Living the dream!".

It's worth all the hurdles you have to jump through.

Being from the Bay Area and Central/Northern California I'm naturally a 49ers fan.

Nothing to be proud of lately, but positive changes have been happening this offseason. B)

In Alberta the two teams' jerseys I see a lot are Seahawks and Broncos. I make sure to give them as hard a time as I can.. with love of course. ;) Some of the best convos I ever had started off at the mall or at grocery stores with me spotting Seahawks jerseys and booing them. Canadians are funny.

Being born and raised on Cape Cod I've been a Pats fan since way before Brady. No pink hat fan here. He and Belichick will retire soon enough and they'll go back to a middle of the pack team. It's been a great ride for me!

Sorry the thread got hijacked!

      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.
