Day one of liquid diets tomorrow; any advice on how to maintain sane? I've never done this before and be honest, I'm petrify of failing, of still staying how I am now. I know I can do this! I know I can! But the fear lingers in the background :/ just want to make sure I won't eat a horse when I get hungry these next two weeks lol

The first few days on liquid are tough, I'm not going to lie. You really have to get your head in the game and practice positive self talk. Keep your eye on the prize. After about day 4 it tends to become easier to follow the diet.

Also, try to avoid situations where you might feel tempted to eat. I went to work, came home every night and didn't socialize at all during my pre-op phase. I really needed to narrow my focus and eliminate the triggers that caused me to binge in the past. I also cleaned out my cupboards and threw out all the processed crap and sugary Snacks in my house.

Remember, it's just a couple of weeks. You can do ANYTHING if you put your mind to it. Hang in there!! Good luck!

The first few day are tough. Every time I would feel hungry I would think "thats my body burning calories" . It is such a mental game. Good luck on your journey.
