Hanging on by a thread! I had to go to a holiday party for work last night at a fancy pizza place (and watch everyone around me drink beer and eat really good pizza for 2 hours) and this afternoon we had a 2 hour Yankee Swap at work where they brought burritos in. BRUTAL. But I haven't cheated so I'm proud of myself, at least? How about you??

Brutal is right! I’ve been on track. I see the scale moving. I thought I had gotten past the sugar craving/detox/withdrawal whatever and then yesterday was SO bad. Low energy, headache, brain fog, and I was so very irritable. I did have a Greek salad with grilled chicken for my meal which was a little more substantial than I’ve been doing (my diet is 2-3 shakes and a meal daily) but I needed it. Today is better. Drinking lots of Water and staying positive! We are headed out of town for the holiday and I looked at pictures of the Airbnb Home we are in and am trying to focus on all the fun memories we will have. Even though I’ve been asked to make my biscuits and gravy one morning (it’s a long standing family tradition) pray for me on that!

I have my surgery the 28th too!

this liquid diet is fine, just make sure you drink the Protein Shake when you start to feel hungry, it makes the hunger feeling go away!

      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.
