I'm only 2 days in and IT'S HARD!!! I my diet has always been 95% carbs and dairy. The most meat I ate was pepperoni on my pizza and bacon! Vegetables??? NEVER! For 2 days I have been eating meat and veggies ONLY! I am having a hard time, but I'm not cheating! The foods I USED to eat is what got me here, so I am GOING TO DO THIS!!!! I have noticed, that I am drinking ALOT MORE! I have already had 64 ozs of Water today and its only 1:14 pm. Good luck to you!!!!

I'll have a shake around 3 and dinner will be either meatballs or chili. I think my calories have been cut by 75%. AND I am drinking ALOT of Water.

I'm on day 5, I haven't cheated at all, but it hasn't been easy. I can only have meat and veggies, I don't like either very much. I am only taking in 500-600 cals a day. I am actually looking forward to my surgery, because at least after, I can have yogurt!
Good luck, we'll make it!!!!

Tomorrow is my last day of pre-op diet. I'm to the point that I don't even want to eat. I'm so tired of the same things. I can't wait to be able to add cheese, yogurt, milk, nuts etc. I know it will be a while, but it's something to look forward to. I lost 14lbs this week!

Sweet! Mine seems a little different than most as well! Breakfast and lunch is Protein Shakes. Two Protein Snacks can be bars, yogurt, whatever, and dinner is 6oz meat with non start veggie!



This is basically mine too. I'm so nervous.

My doctor has me on a low carb diet because I have to lose 17 pounds before they will schedule me for surgery. I'm only on day 6, and really praying that I can drop these pounds quickly like so many others have.
Good luck to everyone!!!

      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.
