What is on your menu for Thanksgiving Holiday Meal? Be honest.

Me? I will keep my plate to saucer size and have samples.

I'm going to stick to my plan. Protein first, so maybe a couple ounces of moist turkey, and then vegetables. If room, maybe a tablespoon of mashed potatoes. My pouch is too restrictive to indulge in a bunch of crap, so I'll just stay the course and enjoy the people and conversation at the table rather than the heaping plate in front of me.

Ground Turkey (first), Dressing, Mashed Potatoes (my mom makes the best), cauliflower mac & cheese, a bite of real baked mac & cheese, and a tablespoon of cranberry sauce (the can shaped kind) --- all sample portions of course. I've already logged the food into MyFitnessPal and I'm staying under the limits set for me by my NUT. It's just my parents and I for this T-giving, so they're up for the modifications. For Breakfast though, I'm having some minced ham and soft-scrambled eggs. I'm so happy my stomach is taking to well minced/pureed/soft foods. :)

Breakfast i think I'll have a caramel Protein Shake. For the main dinner I'm going all out.....Cream of mushroom Soup. Then later when I let all that settle I may splurge and have a sugar free vanilla pudding with nutmeg spice! Getting crazy up in my house!! Happy Turkery day to those who are NOT on full liquids [emoji849]

      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.
