I'm trying to get at least 5lbs off before my surgery on May 2nd. I'm doing the liquid diet. (my dr. does not require a pre-op diet) Its really hard. For everyone that had to lose the 5% of weight diet to qualify for the surgery. Congrats I found it very hard but I made it. Now I'm just struggling to keep it off. Just gotta be very careful and avoid the thought of I need to eat that one last time. LoL 

I now 100% understand why everyone says you need to be emotionally ready. Im only halfway and can feel the emotional stress.

Why not do a low cal, low carb diet instead that includes lots of lean protein like chicken and seafood?  You won't get so hungry.  And made sure you drink drink drink.

Ditto what Kelly said.  If you stick to the same calories you would be having with the shakes, you will be less hungry.
