Starting my liquid diet today.....

I'm starting to get a little nervous about the surgery, but this pre-op liquid diet still scares me more!!!

Here's hoping I do get toooooo grumpy!!!

I start mine a week from today and I am sooooo dreading it! Good luck to you!

I have surgery this Thursday....  The first three days of the liquid diet are the worst, after that its a breeze... You can do it!
 

I'm starting my liquid diet today too, so far it is ok, but I am starting to get hungry. I'm hoping it gets easier in the next few days, otherwise this 2 weeks will drag by! I made a huge thing of jello to snack on, so hopefully that will help.

Good luck!

I have read everything on how to make your portein shakes taste good. From the DaVinci syrup, etc. I can't even stand the smell how do you get past that?

Good luck to you, I am on day four and just like everyone says it does get easier.

I don't mind the smell of the Slim Fast Low Carb chocolate ones, that's mostly the shakes I use. This evening, I blended it in the Magic Bullet mixer with ice and it's a lot like these milk shakes my mom used to make when we were kids (except this is healthier - heh!). It helps that I'm eating it with a spoon and chewing the ice pieces.

Today wasn't bad, but I generally have my meal in the evening, so this evening has been challenging!!! My husband feels bad because he ate dinner, but I told him not too. It's going to be quite a while before I can "eat" again! He's being very supportive and telling me how proud he is that I'm sticking to this.

I started mine two days ago and today i felt a little light headed, but i ate some jello and felt better.. just keep drinking and you will be fine.. good luck!!

I am on day 11 of the pre-op Liquid only diet. It gets much better. I am now starting to control myself with being hungry !! My surgery is on Friday which I am really starting to get scared....This is a big step in our lives!!! But we can do it !!

Wow!!! Day 11 - way to go!!!!     Today has been rough, but I'm stickin with it and will probably go to bed early again tonight. My mom wants McDonald's for dinner, so I will pick that up on my way over, get her started and then go to the waiting room until she's done. I have my protein shake for dinner with me, so I can do that while she eats.

I'm sort of grumpy today...LOL...but I can do this!! I've come too far and worked to hard to mess it up now!
