Goodness, it just seems to have hit me that my days with a whole stomach are almost over! I start the prep diet on Thursday, have surgery the following Thursday. I really haven't done anything overboard. In fact, I have already been having a Protein shake for Breakfast and reasonable meals otherwise.

Anyone have encouragement for staying reasonable for the next three days? A reminder that I won't always be on liquids or mushies? Please? LOL

I started my liquid diet 2 days early so I could avoid it. I kept thinking "what else do I need to eat before I can't anymore" so I figured it would be better to just go ahead and start. Good luck with your surgery.

i agree, just do it!!

there is no need to wait or have "A LAST SUPPER"!!! i have been doing pre-op diet since november!! waiting to have my surgery may 9th. it has only benefited me. i have lost 54lbs and i am that much closer to my goal because of it! oh, and i also will not have to do a liquid diet before surgery because my liver is already shrunk!! YAY!!

you can do it! good luck to you!

Well, I must admit I never thought of starting it early. Once I get all my supplies I may just do that! Thanks!
