I can’t believe you will have been doing liquids only for almost 3 weeks prior to surgery. How are you overcoming the salt cravings? Good luck surgery buddy, I’m May 15th VSG as well.

Yes 3 weeks!! It’s been tough being on liquids. The salt cravings are hard. I just drink a cup of chicken broth and a lot of Water. Lol. Good luck to you too. Send me a message once your surgery is over and I will do the same.

You got this! I remember the feeling well! I am a week out and I feel so much better now, one week later. It’s a tough journey but I think it’s worth it, even having just been through the tough stuff. Let me know if you want to chat about anything, you can send me a message if you want! You’re not alone in this!

      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.
