I'm only on soft food but can only manage 3-4tsps before I get full. Any more and I'm uncomfortable and feel sick.
That's totally normal!

Brunch today. Leftover spiral cut ham on half a whole wheat English muffin. It was D.r.y... I should have used butter!

It's like these cup-a-noodles only that it's rice instead of noodles with freeze dried vegetables and a little sachet with a little spiced oil in it. Mix it with boiling Water, stir and eat a few minutes later when all the water has been absorbed.

I usually have it in my desk sitting at work as an emergency meal together with single portions of mymuesli, Protein Bars and microwaveable rice (like Tilda's coriander & lime or Uncle Ben's curry rice) or canned vegetables in some sauce (from the Turkish market).

It's a YumBox I ordered from Amazon. You can choose between four compartments or five compartments. You can also order just the inlay so you can change it but I have an older BentGo children's lunchbox and don't like these five compartments that much. They're too small to pack away a regular sandwich. Four compartments are just right for my everyday use.

What is it that you do for work that you are continuing to go out during this virus crisis?

Not sure if that was directed at me but since I'm the one who posted the working day meal: I'm a radiologist/neuroradiologist working at a hospital of maximum care.

      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.
