Just double check your instructions, tho. I’m on Clear Liquids only the day before my surgery, so yogurt would be out (because that’s a full liquid).

My Protein for after surgery came in! Fingers are crossed that these are still my favorite ones after surgery. I've tried Walmart brand, Muscle Milk, Organic, and yuck yuck yuck! I really like these two. I havent tried the Isopure yet, but I remember seeing someone reccomend it. Are there any other brands of protein yall like that I should give a try? Also, did yall who've recently had surgery do fine with the thickness of Protein Shakes after you got home from surgery?

Good for you! I’m still holding up over here. I can’t believe I lost 18lbs the first week of this liquid diet! I think it’s because my job involves a lot of walking (I work on a pretty busy hospital floor). Surgery is scheduled for Wednesday at 0930! We’re so close you guys!!

Yesterday I had a free for all since we went to the lake and made a lot of good food. I already planned to eat since it was gonna be my last day to eat anything. I didn't drink any soda or carbonated drinks so that was the only positive out of that.Today I went right back to nothing but liquid and I am skipping my one allowed meal. I gained 3lbs back I was 9lbs down but back to 6lbs down. No more cheating or planned cheating scouts honor! lol 5 day until surgery!

I'm down 7lbs... in two days it will be a week. I was hoping to lose atleast 10lbs by surgery date on the 23rd. I am not hungry at all during the day. Until it gets toward dinner time that's when I get really hungry. But my doc recently allowed the one meal a day and that helps a lot getting to eat a salad.

Y’all. Isopure unflavored is TRULY unflavored. I added it to my broth for the first time today, and I can’t taste it. It has none of that gross Protein aftertaste. I got it from Amazon if anyone is interested. I just thought I’d share!! Hope everyone is doing well!

YOU CAN DOOOO IT!!!! WE can do it!! I’m so sorry you’re having headaches. I suffer from Migraines myself, so I know how it is. I guess I have it a bit easier than most. I work nights (3 12hr shifts), so I spend a lot of the day asleep, and I’m not much of a night eater anyway. For me, my challenge is gonna be when I go to school (I’m a nursing student) and clinical on my off days. Everyone’s gonna be eating, and I’m just gonna be sitting there with my Jello and Protein Shake.< span class="ipsEmoji">😩

12 pounds down since the start of this liquid diet!! Woo hoo! It hasn’t even been a week yet! Hope everyone else is making it. I finally feel like I’m not missing out on anything or starving all the time.

I signed my consent forms yesterday and the NP and surgeon sent in prescriptions to have on hand for after surgery.
I've ordered several different sampler packs of Protein supplements to get me started after surgery. I got the large sampler pack from here, a variety pack of Iso100 drinks, and a sample pack from Unjury. I also have a list of stuff to get at Walmart to have on hand, such as juven powder, mucinex, allergy medication for post-nasal drip, stool softener/laxative.. etc.
I'm about to make a list of things I should do before surgery, too. Any other ideas or things I'm missing?? 11 days to go!

I keep VISUALIZING success. I know me... if I sit around worrying about failing, chances are, I will.
You have to be the Little Engine - I **KNOW** I CAN! I **KNOW** I CAN! I **KNOW** I CAN!
Keep on chugging along!!

I asked my doctor about the one meal and he said for him its not about shrinking the liver its more about if I could actually do it because I want the surgery enough. Just like i thought! lol He's like i dont care if you do the diet or not... its up to you of course don't go crazy and the 2 days before its mandatory nothing but liquid! I told him I'm definitely ready for the surgery and I wouldn't be doing it if I wasn't. That I would do the one healthy meal a day like a salad. He said it was fine. WOO!!

July 24th peeps! Pre-op started today! I hope everyone’s doing great! 2 weeks til surgery! Everyone else on pre-op whose dates are sooner, I hope y’all are doing great too!! We got this y’all!!

Haha! YEESS! I’m off today (I work in a hospital), and I did what I usually do on my days off: wake up and decide what to eat. I was thinking of all these things until I realized that I was supposed to start the liquid diet today.🤦🏽‍♀️ The hunger isn’t terrible tho. I’m sipping liquids all day, so I’m not feeling it too much.

I started today, too! For me, it’s just trying to break the habit of actually eating. The hunger isn’t terrible yet, lol. But we got this! We’ll be on the other side soon enough. 😁 Feel free to talk if you need some moral support!!
