Today I start my full liquid diet until surgery on the 22nd...I have noticed others on here have said that the first 4 days are the hardest, I am just ready to get through this next two weeks and on to surgery! For the last two weeks I have been mostly on liquids (3-4 protein shakes a day and 1 meal per my surgeon) and I have lost 11 lbs in the last week. On my last pre-op on Friday they said as long as I follow their instructions I should lose at least that much more before surgery....anyway wish me luck with the full liquids!!!

It will hurt. It will take time. It will require dedication. It will require willpower. It requires sacrifice. There will be temptation. But, I promise you, when you reach your goal, it's WORTH IT! (Author Unknown). I feel this sums up my ongoing journey to a healthier me!

Sounds like you're really getting a good headstart on your weight loss journey!  May hat's off to you, and I hope things continue to go so well.  Good luck on the next two weeks, and on your surgery!

Have a list of things you can do that will distract you when you get hungry.   There may be times when you think "if I can't do this, how I will do it after surgery?".  Just remember that AFTER surgery, you won't feel hungry.    When I think back, I realized that I gave up not just favorite foods, but alcohol and caffeine at the same time - no wonder I was so darned cranky! 

You'll do great, just keep your eye on the prize!

 Good luck.  It will be hard at first, but you will get use to it.
