I’m so blessed my restless leg went away. Now if I can get over 6 spoons of broth I’d be great lol did you increase your Protein? The doctor told me at discharge if I start to feel hungry increase my Protein Shakes to 3 a day.

I can easily do 64 oz Water + 3 Protein Drinks a day. Added in some Soup too.

Had my sleeve 1 week ago today. I have still not felt hungry! They told me in my classes leading up to this that I may have to set alarms to remember to eat. That is so true.

I can bairly get a protien shake down in an hour.

@linnea29 I WAS scheduled for the 27th but I had to reschedule bcuz I had a lot of stress at home and was unable to focus on me. Luckily my insurance wasn't going to pay so that kind of helped with my anxiety and fears. Then just recently I tested positive for covid....so all in all maybe it's not the right time to do the surgery. Hopefully one day but I will stay on track with eating right and lose the weight on my own.

Good luck to you, you got this!!

      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.
