HEY ALL.

SO I AM JUST NOW GETTING INTO MY 6 MONTH DIET BUT I CAN'T HELP TO LOOK AHEAD. I AM MORE SCARED OF THE liquid DIET PRE-OP THAN ANYTHING. CHOOSING TO EAT HEALTHY FOODS I AM OKAY WITH. BUT NOT EATING ANY FOODS AT ALL SCARE THE CRAP OUT OF ME. I JUST HOPE I HAVE ENOUGH WILLPOWER TO DO IT. WHAT HAS HELPED ALL OF YOU? WHAT HAVE YOU HAD IN THOSE 2 WEEKS? ANY SUGGESTIONS/COMMENTS WOULD REALLY HELP! THANKS FOR LISTENING!!

I feel like a mad woman. I am on day 3 of liquid diet and I feel nauseous. I swear if I drink another shake or drop of Water I am going to puke. My doctor is very strict' date=' 3 shakes a day and water only. No broth, no pudding or Jello. I am having it rough you all. I think if I was able to gave other things it would nt be this bad.[/quote']

Omg!! Meeeeeeee too! I've cheated and had Soup for dinner one night, and it was AMAZING! But every day, 3 Protein shakes only and water! It's killing me! Have u lost weight? How long are you doing it for? What do you drink?

I have lost a total of 8 lbs and I am on day 4 of liquid diet. Today is going to really be a test because it is the weekend. I have begged my husband to go get me some egg drop soup. I drink the EAS Advantedge Carb Control shakes. Walmart sell them or Publix. Propel water also. I have to do 2 weeks of liquids and surgery is July 11. I have 10 days to go.

Congrats! 8 lbs in 4 days is great! I tried those EAS ones, I coudnt drink a whole one! I'm doing the Atkins advantage. Those I can bear. But I also mix it up and have a blended slim fast that I make out of the powder. I'm going today to GNC because they have a shake that has 25 Protein and @ 5/6 carbs...I'm on this diet untill doc says no more, since I don't have a surgery date. But you doc will be so happy your liver is shrinking from this special diet, it willard surgery faster! Congrats again!

Thanks a lot!

Hash is not even the beginning. Let's try insane. I will stuck to it because I really want this surgery. I know I will eat solids again but this is a challenge .

Oh mannnnn! So sorry! I'm on day 13 of liquids but I can have sugar free Popsicles and broth. And I have been going nuts, so I can only imagine. However, I found that days 1-4 were worst days! Day 4 especially! So try to get over that and it will get easier! It's not forever! Will pray for you!!

After day 3 it wasn't so bad. Once I got past the headaches I actually wasn't that hungry.

I had the same thing. You can do it! One day till my surgery!

I just started my 2 week liquid diet today. Does anyone have recommendations for protein shakes? I went to GNC and bought a bunch of different ones to try, so far I am tried the GNC Total Lean Vanilla Bean and its not as bad as I was expecting.

I really like the GNC shakes, also try the Atkins advantage, those are good in protein you can get them at Walmart. They even have coffee ones

I looooove the protein shots. Kroeger has them on sale right now for 1.59. I wiped them clean out. They are near the pharmacy section, close to the EAS/Slimfast junk. I love them because the have 26 grams of protein, no sugar, 10 calories and a fruit flavored and I just down them. pretty refreshing and NOT a darn milk flavored drink. They are pretty expensive, even online, so run out to Krogers now! 2 people in the check out line asked me what they were.

What are they called? I don't have a kroeger in as but definitely interested in these!

thanks for the suggestions!

well, i started on 6/26 and it was going pretty darn well - a whole lot better than i expected...until today. i couldn't resist the bbq smell and had a chicken leg and 1 rib. i have a headache out of this world and hope i haven't screwed everything up. we'll see. my surgery is scheduled for the 9th but may have to be postponed for a totally different reason (posting in another thread), so that's how i justified it in my head.
