I started mine today, and I am sooo much hungrier this 2nd time around. Breathing through it, knowing it'll get better!

So far diet has been easy. I have two Protein Shakes and one frozen dinner like Lean Cuisine or Healthy Choice. Less than 50g carbs per day and 1000 calories. Allowed Snacks like hardboiled egg, deli meat or string cheese. One Breakfast I mixed Protein Shake with sugar-free pudding mix. I wasn't hungry for hours. Been logging my food, Water and excercise. I've been eating 100+ g Protein and 100+ oz liquid. I usually end day with about 800 calories for the day and 40g carbs. Lost 3 pounds since Friday.

      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.
