June 4th surgery here! Been on liquid diet since May 21st and I’m soooo over it. I’m ready for next Monday to be here!
I’ve got my Magic Bullet ready for purée phase, serving plates with portion sizes, and probably 19 other things I still need to get lol 😆
@lisajayne I’m not nauseous but, I have really bad diarrhea. I’m not really sure which is worse.

Good luck all!

My surgery is June 18th. Are you finding any consistent answers as to what everyone has purchased yet? I'm researching quite a bit of items. Looking for ideas of things that would help with the process that I may not be thinking of. Good Luck!

I have my surgery date scheduled for June 25th. I am absolutely terrified about the two week liquid diet. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

I think my body is trying to sleep through the pre-op diet. I did wake up at 1:00am because I was hungry, I drank some 5 calorie chicken broth and went back to sleep. I just got home from work and I think I am going to take a nap and try to stay up later than 8:30pm.

      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.
