Hello everyone.

I’d really like some new ones to compare my progress with. And yes I’m totally stalking everyone for May 21st but In a good way

Definitely! I’ll for sure be in my room trying to text y’all all the details no matter how woozy I feel from my anesthesia [emoji23][emoji23] Everyone else who went into surgery the past two weeks just left me hanging [emoji30]

How’s your liquid diet going?

My doctor didn’t require a liquid diet. He put me on a high Protein, low carb diet that I started Saturday. However, I’ve been nervous about just liquids after surgery so I’m doing 2 meals liquid and a small dinner. I’ve lost 6 pounds so far. Will probably try to do all liquid the last few days. I’m scared it will be really hard after surgery if I don’t. How’s yours going?

You are so lucky! I’m doing horrible I keep eating Protein. I had plain eggs for Breakfast and I want a slice of salmon for dinner. I know it has no carbs and low in cal & fat but I feel bad because that’s not what my doctor instructed. The extra week was what killed me after I had been doing well for 6 days on my liquid diet then suddenly the call that it was pushed. I sure as hell wasn’t doing a 3 week liquid so I broke it and came back on it but the hunger and cravings are back like day one. I’m thinking of doing a laxative and a diuretic the day before see if I can cleanse myself and get rid of excess Water but I’m afraid of being dehydrated [emoji30]

You’re doing better than me.. I totally gave myself permission to eat Protein. I’ve lost 10lbs so far so I deff have some progress to show for but if my surgeon knew how I been tweaking my diet he’ll prob cut my head off [emoji87]

      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.
