Yeah im struggling I keep finding myself cheating taking bites of food here and there. I havent ate any meals or anything, but as im feeding my son I take bites some days. This is my 4th day and all I can have is Soup broth, carnation or other Protein Shakes Water crystal light that's it and this is not right at all.

I agree, this is extremely hard. I can't shake this headache. I started my pre op diet on Monday. Surgery on 10/19. Constantly feels like I have a stomach ache and I was very gaggy this morning while brushing my teeth. This is probably all because I never let myself get hungry before. All new sensations but I'm sick of the shakes -- that's for sure! I'm also too scared to weigh myself -- I'm waiting until I weigh in prior to surgery.

I am so excited for you all. Next week I will be going through the same thing w/ the headaches and all (I know IT). But the excitement of finally getting the surgery - - wowowow. Think about how you will feel in 2-3 months?

I am praying that I can do the pre-op with no sneaking.... I've heard the first few days are the hardest. Good Luck you guys, you are going to get though this wonderfully!

      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.
