I'm one week into the pre-op diet and it's been a real challenge for me. I've done a lot of diets in the past that resembled this but it doesn't make it any easier. I didn't realize how much snacking I did till now, such as those little 6 pack crackers, small sleeves of Cookies, etc. I can do anything for a week (I hope). November 18th is just around the corner. A lot of people have said it gets easier after the 3rd day, but not for me. I'm hoping for a quick week.

My surgery is on the 18th and I am really struggling with the pre-op diet. So far I haven't knowingly cheated, but I am having a very hard time adjusting. I am normally easy going but I find myself being "testy" and unusually short in temperament. I am hoping my body accepts this new me sooner rather than later.
