I feel your pain. Day 3 or 4 is the worst. Your body is withdrawing from the carbs. I know for me I had headaches, and a lot of trouble concentrating on stuff. I would love a bar or some Soup. I am only on shakes, Day 8 out of 14. Just focus on the fact that your liver needs to shrink. You only have a 3 days left and you can do it! Funny thing, I am totally craving salad.

At least you get to have 1 small meal...I am on 4 protein shakes a day and that is it. Day 6 and I'm really bumming. I would just love to have some steamed broccoli or even a small salad. I dont really care for sweets that much so drinking 4 sweet things a day is really not enjoyable. I'm having some chicken broth...it helps a bit. I can at least pretend its chicken soup!

2 weeks before surgery I have had to be on a liquid Protein shake only diet. It's day 6 for me. I must say, it is much harder psychologically than I thought it would be. The nutritionist said I could have some chicken broth or sugar free Jello. The chicken broth helps a bit. I can at least pretend its chicken Soup. Need to go out and buy some jello. Good Luck with Surgery!

My surgery is on Monday, May 23. I am very excited, but this 2 week liquid only diet is kicking my butt. I wish everyone a lot of success.
