This thread is popping all of a sudden lol. Yesterday was my last day at work before the leave. I've been telling everyone I'm going on vacation lol. I know it's weird but I feel like I'm preparing for things to go wrong so I spent all day at work making sure everything was organized for my teammates in case I didn't return. Very Morbid. I just have this big fear of dying on the operating table. My surgery is 2 days away and all I can think about is dying. At least it has replaced my yearning for meat.

I feel ya. I’m on day 5 too. Same diet as well. I’m want to eat so bad but I’m not really hungry. I think it’s just a mental thing of chewing. Seeing others eat doesn’t help...



Ditto! And going to costco is like torture lol

10/16 Surgery liquid diet start Tomorrow Any Suggestions




Have your sf popsicles and sf Jello ready. I did the Premier Protien drinks because 8 know myself and if I had to prep, I would have failed. I am not sure if you get one meal a day, but I had that prepped too. God luck! Today is my last day on the diet before surgery tomorrow!

10/16 Surgery liquid diet start Tomorrow Any Suggestions




I found that doing the Protein Powder in the morning around 11 helps in keeping me full until around 2. I then may have chicken broth. Around 3 I drink a Protein Shake and another around 7. In between I have popsicles, Jello, and Water.

Hope this helps

      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.
