If you are staying hungry I would definitely suggest trying an actual meal replacement shake like the Bariatric advantage. I am only allowed 3 of those per day and clear liquids. Monday is surgery day and I have not cried or died yet so it is definitely something to look into. -

What kind of shakes are you drinking. I am having to do the Bariatric meal replacement shakes. They are expensive but keep you full longer! -

Lots of positive vibes for a safe and successful surgery and a fast recovery! My kiddo is actually trying to be independent and fend for herself so it has not been too bad actually! Granted she is living off chicken nuggets and pizza and whatever her boyfriend decides to feed her on date nights. I am proud of her. -

Starting day 8 of the pre op diet. No energy and lots of headaches but I am still hanging in and have not cheated! So I feel accomplished! As of yesterday I am down 11 pounds! -

Oh lord I was thinking I was the only one with a strict doctor! So far the biggest issue is lack of sugar and feeling weak. And for the love of all things holy don’t stand up too fast!!! -

Day 5 and I was planning on kayaking today but my body and the weather are not cooperating. My boyfriend looked at me and said I had no color to me but I am here and not hungry just no energy. Maybe I will adjust soon! -
