Stage 1 diet ( post op) :

Doing the thing like I'm supposed to... Still absolutely no hunger. Even while cooking for others. Haven't even bothered with Jello cups or popsicles yet. Still just fluids.

@GreenTealael has the GERD disappeared?

So far yes, no one can hear my stomach churning & I don't feel it either, but I am also not eating. I will wait a few months to give my final views on it to be certain.

My new fave summer treat: (relatively) low-cal/low-sugar Chocolate-Peanut Butter "frozen dessert". I like it because its not sweet...more a dark chocolate flavour vs a milk chocolate, and the Peanut Butter to chocolate ratio is not too much, just enough to taste.

100 cals per 1/2 cup; 6g protein; 8g NET carbs; 3.5g fat.

I had this after dinner, and as I was pretty low on calories still, I added 1/4 cup of whipped cream (not shown).

How do you like the Strawberries and Cream? My fave is still Bananas and Cream (especially in coffee and smoothies). But I've wanted to try the strawberry but been afraid! :D

Reviews please. And how much are you able to get down at a sitting?

SF Popsicles are pretty heavenly tho...could easily pass on the sf Jello and sf pudding tho.

I don't like any of the flavors straight except Cookies and cream ( but i never drink it straight anyway 😞)

No clue how much I'm able to get down in a sitting because im simply always drinking to meet my quota. Im not measuring just completing items. So far I've tried waters, popsicles once, bai, broth twice, PP shakes and teas. Nothing else.

Also I'm even colder than before patiently waiting for this heat wave 😂

My fancy new spiralizer came in, and zoodles were accomplished. This thing is SO MUCH better than the crappy handheld one that it replaced. I should have bought it to begin with, it was all of $25. I was being silly. So now, I present to you: Zoodle Perfection with Morningstar Farms Griller Bits, and Black olives. Topped with a lovely Alfredo sauce. So fancy!

      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.
