So, I am slightly less than 2 weeks from my surgery (YAYYY!!) I started the pre-op diet yesterday. I think my stomach is eating itself LOL. Question is: How am I going to make it 12 more days if I'm this hungry now? Any advice??

I'm on day 4 of my pre op diet and I too felt the same way. Just yesterday at day three it seemed to be a little better. the first two days were HORRIBLE. I felt weak and SOOOO hungry. I'm doing Bariatric advantage 3 shakes and 2 protein bars a day. Just hang in there it will get better and just think it's only 2 weeks, then surgery!!! Good luck!

I'm new here, and only thinking about getting the sleeve.

Re: your hunger, are you allowed a little fat in the diet? It sounds kind of gross, but you could add a little oil to your shakes (I'd suggest better ones than Slim Fast). A tablespoon of oil to your shake will help slow digestion a little and will help to satiate your appetite/hunger.

Of course, if this is against doctors' orders, disregard!

You need "meal replacement " shakes with the most Protein, least carbs & you shouldn't get too hungry. Chew gum. My surgeon office also said if hungry I can have another shake.
