Pre-op diet protein shakes

So I have read many postings how the pre-op diet is a real killer. I will have my surgery date next week and I know it won't be until the first week of October. My surgeon requires 2 weeks of a pre-op liquid diet. I have just ordered a starter kit from Unjury.because I am going to start bringing in liquid items into my diet way before I HAVE to. I have found that this has worked with soda, I have already quit that and caffeine is gone too. I think the only thing I will miss is chewing once I get to that 2 week mark. Has anyone else done this so it isn't such a shock to the system?

It will only suck for the first 2 days. you need to follow what your doc says to the T. If you want to chew on something get some sugerless gum. It helped me soo much just don't forget and accidently swallow it. Your not the first to be on liquid and you will not be the last. Everyone here had to endure it ..You just have to set your mind to do this and remember what you are doing it for and stay focused on the goal. It is only 2 weeks..
