I hear you.. I only started losing last month..my Dr wanted me to lose 10 lbs and through diet and exercise all I could lose for 3 months was 2 lbs then i finally started seeing an endocrinologist and got diagnosed w hashimotos.once he put me on synthroid for a few months the scales started to move i went from 270 to 248 where I am now..im hoping to lose more on this liquid diet I start sunday before surgery.. I know the struggle all to well.

We will both be in the same boat.. What are you using for your Protein source? I bought 3 different flavors of Isopure to try out.. So far i only like the natural one, someone suggested watering down some of the other flavors to make them more palatable.. I also was given the Unjury protein chicken broth..I love Soup this is doable having broth..

I love the Premier shakes abd drinks. I'm not too fond of the vanilla. I was given some Isopure today, so I'll try it Sunday. What other food to you plan to try because I can't stomach cottage cheese.< br>

      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.
