My Dr. says that I can have 1/2 cup of green veggies a day during the liquid diet. I wonder if it will help my hunger or just make me crave food more. We're any of you allowed veggies and did it help?

Take this as an opportunity to kick start the weight loss process and to get used to your new diet for the next several weeks. It will be an easier time after because your stomach will be so small but, for me, the 2 week pre op diet allowed me to drop 20 lbs extra!

On day 11 of my pre-op diet, I always do a Protein Shakes as meals, and a couple for Snacks I could have up to 6 a day and they really seemed to help me with hunger, and lots of Water and activity to keep your mind busy in between.

No food at all other than Jello and pudding. I can have 3 shakes a day.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
