Firstly, THANK YOU for the timely reminder, that fast food isn't fast, you have to drive there, wait and come home again - its junk food, JUNK JUNK JUNK :biggrin:

On the shakes, true they don't taste like Burger King shakes, but I honestly, hand on heart, enjoy the strawberry Optifast - but don't try me on the vanilla *arghhhhhh - YUK!

Try this:

Get the Carnation Instant Breakfast Vanilla sugar free

add a scoop or half a scoop of non flavored (yeah right) whey Protein

add fat free milk and a little ice

then add some fat free or sugar free or whatever Peanut Butter

mix it up and I promise you that you will LOVE it

(well as long as you like peanut butter)

You will also get lot's of protein from this drink

When I was doing this I did it for breakfast and it was approx 270 cal. per shake and 32 grams of protein

I hope you like it let me know!

      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.
