Ugh how did you post'opers get thru the....

 Pre liquid stage??
I been on liquids since Monday & I gotta go till the 6th.
Help my growling gut!!!! lol

You do it because you have no choice.

You do it because you want it.

Really is that simple.

The growling isn't hunger. It's your stomach healing.

I'm assuming you're a new post op (Your information on the sidebar isn't filled out).

If you're on the pre-op diet... same thing. You don't have a choice and you have to want it bad enough.

The question is... do you want it bad enough

 I HATED the pre-op liquids. Optifast made me sick. That said, it went by faster than I thought it would. The best thing to do is to distract yourself as much as possible. I also munched on veggies (but not when I was on clears). good luck!

 Try hot tea...something about the heat made me feel fuller.  Maybe it was mental, but it worked for me.

 lots of sugar free popsicles lol.

Sleevegirl is exactly right. I just pushed through it because I had to. You can too! I treated myself to some good herbal teas. They tasted good and the warm liquid made me feel full longer. You can do this!

Yeah, lots and lots of popsicles. And other liquids. I found it got easier after a few days.

Yep, that pre-op diet sucks hard.  You'll get through it.  Just press on!

 Keep your eye on the prize and watch the numbers on the scale drop.

What exactly is the issue?

If it's taste, disguise it with SF syrups or Crystal LIte or the like.

Not exactly sure why you have growly gut.
