3 days until Surgery

I am 12 days into the liver cleanse diet and today I could eat anything. The protein bars and protein drinks are boring me and I want to chew something. I have given up Dr. Pepper for life (which has shocked everyone who knows me) but giving up food and Dr. Pepper. I can't wait til I get to the point where can eat solid food. I have lost 10 lbs on the liver cleanse diet. But I am ready for the surgery, 3 more days to go.

Cheryl, I wish you all the best. I am just beginning the journey so I don't really "get" it yet. I have been reading how hard it is to prepare for surgery but the common thread I am seeing is how helpful it is to you during surgery. (if that's any consulation!). Keep your chin up and in three days the new you will begin again. God Bless! Lori

Hang in there! You aren't cheating and that's good. It will be worth it; eventually you'll forget you felt this hungry!

Keep up the good work. You've made it so far already I know you won't give in now. And in three days you'll have your new smaller stomach and you want want to eat for a few weeks. I'm 3 weeks out now and I can't even consume all the mushies the nutritionist reccommended to me. It will get easier. Just stick with it.

Hang in there it will so well worth it. When I had mine my dr. gave me a pro-op diet sample menu. Ask your dr if you can eat anything I had slim-fast 2 meals, but I looked forward to being able to have that sandwich for 1 meal. Good luck and just thing 3 more days to go!!!
