Of course, everyone's tastes are different, but that first taste of pureed cottage cheese or refried Beans was absolute heaven! :) And I lost about 14lb in the first two weeks, but keep in mind that there are many factors that determine how much an individual will lose, and at what rate. Comparison is the thief of joy, as they say.

Yeah, my clinic was specific about pureeing cottage cheese for the full Fluid diet... I only blended it a bit, just enough to take out the bigger chunks. I also got a can of beef vegetable Soup (low fat, low sodium) and I blended it until it was really just brown goo. I added some unflavoured Protein Powder to it to bump it up a little. My clinic also allowed oatmeal on full fluids (go figure...), so that was Breakfast every morning, with a bit of unsweetened apple sauce. And sugar free/fat free pudding.

Just had my 2 week check up yesterday and down 18 pounds. After not losing an ounce during the preop diet... I was thrilled. Today I am trying oatmeal with a bit of cinnamon.

Think Thin is pretty good oatmeal with 10 or 15 g of protein.It is a little pricey,but you can buy 3 boxes for 20 dollars on Amazon and you only need it for a few weeks.

I’m 1.5 weeks out. I lost 17 lbs 1 week post op but have only lost like 2 lbs this week. These are the type of things that frustrate me, but trying to stay positive!

      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.
