I will be banded in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic by Dr. Joseph Manuel Ramirez Kubicek on the 11th., I am following the only Protein diet for this week, and from the 3 of august only mushy, liquids and NO CARBS, NO Sweets, NO meat diet. Any ideas for this mushy, blended protein diet?

Hope everything goes well with all of us.

August 4th is coming so fast. Only 6 more days. Ok, here's the question, am I the only one who has a "to do" list that they want to do before they go in for surgery and do not know how they are going to get it all done? I'm not usually obsessive about cleaning but I want everything to be perfectly clean when I come home so that I can really feel like I'm getting a fresh start and to top it all off my nerves are starting to kick in.....:juggle:

All pre-op tests done today...

See doctor & anaesthetist on Monday morning the 3rd Aug, then green light until op on 13th August. Waking up to Optifast shakes x 2 and 2 cups steamed veggies per day. I can handle it. I have to.

Daughter is going to do Optifast with me in sympathy.

Well it looks like we are all getting set for the best thing since bread was sliced and put in a bag...

Cheers and good luck to ALL!!!!

Will be watching keenly for feedback from the early starters :juggle:

      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.
