Hey there. I’m Wed too and I’m nervous too. I had an irregular ekg and had to have a stress test and the cardiologist cleared me. Went for pre op testing and they did another ekg and it was abnormal too so it’s freaking me out. I was cleared and I know the drs know more than me. My husband tells me it’s nerves and anxiety that is keeping me worried. And I have zero doubts that is true. I’ll be a ball or nerves until after surgery.

What state are you in? I’m Texas

My doctor only does three shakes a day, not four. Maybe that could be it. Also I see you have four shakes and milk too! Gosh.

Criteria I was told was 1. Less than 200 calories per serving, 2. At least 25 grams of Protein, and 3. Maximum of 5 grams of sugar and fat. Yours seems to fit criteria

Maggie, I wasn't told that I needed to lose weight, I thought with just the liquid thingy that I would, plus everyone was saying they were losing while on the liquid that's all and it had me worried.

Girl then don’t worry and remember the scale doesn’t always tell the full story! Take this time to be kind to your body and get ready for surgery … we are also holding in so much liquid so I’m sure we are loosing but have a lot of Water weight

      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.
