I’m one week out and drinking 2 Protein Shakes a day. My mood is all over the place and for some reason I feel I won’t loose weight. I’m getting 60 grams of Protein a day, taking victim and, drinking 4-5 cups of Water and I try to get in some hot broth in the evening

Wow; sounds like you are doing great with sticking with the program.

I've had Protein shakes; protein water; Crystal light; few bites of Tomato Soup. I'm only 3 days out but it's been satisfying.

I didn’t even think of Tomato soup! I’m going to try that today. I am struggling with Protein because they all taste so sweet and make me want to throw up.

Have you tried Premier? Chike brand has a Meal Replacement that's my favorite, it's called banana magic

I have uses the premier for a quick go too and yes they are sweet, I like to place mine in the freezer for about 5 mins to make a slush. I also make my own using a Protein Powder called Body Fortress at Walmart; they have a nice variety! Not near as sweet; I also use powdered Peanut Butter and it blends very well!

I've not heard of Chike though

      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.
