Ohhh, be patient. My first 2 days was Water only, day 3 maybe protien hit 25. By day 5 I was at 50. Day 11 today. I am now getting 5 to 6 meals in, 58 to 60 protien and at least 48oz of water in daily. You will get there, hang in.

I had my surgery in the 8th as well. Make sure you are taking your nausea medicine as well. I was neglecting it and could barely get 30oz of Fluid. Got home and had a miserable day. My wife asked me if I was taking the medicine I said no I didn’t feel nauseous. She told me being unable to drink is exactly what the nausea is. So I started taking it and instead of taking 5 hours to get a 16oz Protein Water down on Saturday night, it took me 2.5 hours this morning and it felt much more natural. It’s a huge difference and I’d give that a try. It may take a day or so to get the dehydration under control but once you have that and nausea taken care of, it’s a lot easier.

I’ve got my post surgery appointment this Friday, and I too am looking forward to adding creamed Soups to my diet, as well as get approval for a spoonful or two of mashed potatoes on Thanksgiving.

      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.
