stage 2 liquid diet before surgery

 im only on day 2 and i feel like im dying .. i want to eat everything in sight .. and today i ended up eating a bite of my sons chicken strip .. i feel quilty nw but im so hungry

Hi Chelsea! I am getting ready to start my liquid diet next Monday. I have anxiety about it but I know some others who got through it. I have been told that the first 2-4 days are the worst. Can you differentiate between head hunger and real hunger? Maybe you need increased protein to keep you fuller longer. Don't you give up!!!! Pray, walk, anything to keep you distracted. Drink extra water!! Good luck and God bless

 its mainly head hungry and me thinking y am i doing this .. im giving up all this good food blah blah all they stuff ya put yur self thru just cuz i nervous .. scared .. i feel like **** now that i ate a bite of chicken .. but now i have to be really really good for the next 12 days :) .. 

 I'm not even on the pre-op diet yet and I'm already struggling with the thoughts. You aren't alone. We have to stay strong!

 I'm a week post op and I had trouble with it too. Hang in there, this too shall pass. 

 yes it would.  Do the protein shakes.  They are the best way to fill u up.  I mix th protein shakes with 1% milk.  My doc had me onliquids for 2 weeks.

 Hang in there.  I know it is tough and all you want to do is chew something.  I went through the same thing.  All i wanted was a bite of cheese.  After a monthe of liquids and i was finally able to eat after the surgery, I had my cheese. And let me tell you it was worth the wait.  Don't forget you can eat sf jello.  That's the closest thing to chewing you will get.  What i did was drink LOTS of protein shakes throught out the day.  I would also drink an entire carton of chicken broth.  It will get eaiser with time.  Trust me. i've been right where you are.  Make sure you surround yourself with people that are supportive of what you r going through.  There are people that would to derail your progress, but DON"T allow then to do that.
Good Luck

I am also on day 2 of liquid pre op diet and I am feeling okay, just so much diarhea and peeing and of course fighting the craving to eat.

 Ice chips with sugar free vanilla syrup helped with my crunch crave.  I am one week post op. That two week diet was horrible!!! Your body is craving carbs and sugar and salt. I learned that after two weeks you actually detox off the sugar and salt and carbs. It will be much easier after surgery, I promise!!! Hang in there. There were times I wanted to scream and would leave the house and walk to the mailbox and back to get my mind off food.
