thanks latrice and dolly. i guess i just need someone to make me stop and think about what I am doing. I am doing this for a reason also and need to get my self together. I fully intend to stick with the pre-op diet for sure now. After all, I still have 8 more days and I know I can do this! thanks jenhay

Here in Australia (well in my state of Tasmania, really) you never hear of anyone having a pre-op diet. So it beats me why you guys have to have it!

HI there, I was on the same high Protein low carb diet because I couldn't do the shakes due to the milk content. I have to admit, I messed up once and ate chicken strips and fries as I just had the most awful craving for comfort food. I too felt awful after eating it, and it almost made it worse because before eating it my cravings really werent that bad since I had been on the diet for over a week, after I ate it...it was very hard to get back on track (although i did) because the cravings just intensifed and made it harder to get through the next week. So my advice...go for the sugar free fudgesicles/popsicles and save yourself the guilt and cravings:thumbup:

That's right Latrice! Stay Strong...Much easier said than done...Today was a good day..I was determined more than ever to stick to it 6 days 6 days...Breakfast I changed it up a bit..Low Carb Slim Fast (Vanilla) with some frozen strawberries and blueberries....It was OK..not a oreo shake from Sonic but it got the job done...Before I knew it ...it was lunch time. I had my tuna salad for lunch and had some almonds for a snack. Then I get home ready to eat dinner and guess what...I forgot to drop the meat from the freezer! GRRRR....all gravy though! Had me a slim fast for dinner and there ya go! Now, I know if I can do it..we all can do it. I just keep thinking of the blog I read yesterday...about the doctors opening me up and cancelling my surgery...HECK NO! I have worked wayyyyy to hard for this and I refuse to get cancelled b/c of something I HAD control over! WE CAN DO IT!!!! WE HAVE TO DO IT!! There are no exceptions...well except for the Cookies I had last night...BUT THAT'S IT! LOL

lol.. i only read the main post, but im sure others have said what i will say... or prehaps not... u will have day's like that. I will tell u as long as u didn't eat a pound or 1/2 pound of m&m u are fine. Drink some milk of magnesia and it will push everything out of u. some days u will have cravings and what i do is to get chocolate kisses and eat a few. That normally does it for me. but i am a huge snacker, chips and crap and it is definately mind over matter.. something that i am struggling with right now. The band will allow u to eat that crap so u just have to be strong and know that the prize is u loosing weight and getting to your goal..... I have been banded for a little over 2mths and my brain is thinking 6 or so.. and i have to remind myself that I am doing damn good for being 2 1/2 mths out.... U can do it... just take one day at a time...

      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.
