i didnt think we were allowed popcorn?


I am not sure if I can have popcorn so I will ask my doctor on Friday when I see him. I know I can't have it now because I am in the full liquid phase. Maybe at week 4 or 5 once I get approval.

Well all doctors tell you different thing and some say you can have coffee some say you can't. Before I left hospital I received a book and it has everything you can and cannot have by the weeks and months. You just have to do what your doctor said to do. This book starts from Phase 1 being the liquids on. I look at calories and portion and if something is gluten free. Also I have Baby bel cheese and that can be salty Gouda original my on the go snack

Thank you, cheese is a good place to go for that salty craving. I wish I had a book that was so detailed like that. You are right, since I have started on this group forum I see that there are a lot of different answers coming from doctors.

Your welcome I really can only tell you what my doctor told me all doctors are a lot different when I tell you what my doctor said it's only by me asking and my experience. But it's always best to do what your doctor tells your to do. My doctor said I can have coffee even had it in the hospital. But I only use it for ice coffee and make my own with my Premier drink and Creamer. But one lady said that her doctor said she can have soda but my doctor told me no soda due to carbonation in the soda my point is that everyone should ask there doctor and just do what there doctors want them to do. But take care and I know that your weight loss will be a successful.

One thing I am finding interesting is how different the protocols are between different doctors. Some say no coffee, no caffeine some say it's ok. Some no catheter or drain, some get both. I had a 1 night say but my niece had 3. Some people begin having to shovel down Protein Drinks in the first day, some gradually ease into the shakes.
I just find it interesting that we have the exact same type of surgery but different protocols.
Don't ya'll?

      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.
