I had surgery on May 20, 2014. I found the 2 week liquid diet to be very challenging but I conquered and feel very good about it! We had Mother's Day celebrations, birthday celebrations and graduation celebrations during that 2 week period. Lots of eating out, but I would take my shake with me and try not to be distracted by HOW much I wanted to eat what everyone else was eating. It really was hard, but I was determined to NOT cheat (and I didn't). At each meal that I didn't get to eat, I took a picture of what I was missing out on as a reminder that I was STRONG and I overcame my wants. I was only allowed to have Carnation Instant Breakfast, so by the 2nd week I was really tired of sweet stuff. The day before surgery, I was allowed to have broth and I enjoyed it very much! Stay strong! You can do this! It helps get you ready for what's to come after surgery too!
