Am so tired of these liquids I want to chew on something lol. Btw I weighed myself and I have lost ::drum roll:: 20 lbs woot woot

Great job Jenz, I to hate the liquid diet and I also am down 20 lbs and my surgery is Monday! I can't wait to get this part behind me! When is your surgery?

My nut advised to chew on celery, broccoli and cucumbers whenever i had an urge to chew and if i could not get rid of hunger pangs to eat a tsp of natural peanut butter or a 1/4 cup of nuts.

Hey Gaye I had the surgery on June 6th.

Chuckles I'm going to try that I LOVE cucumbers!!!

Wow, my NUT told us no raw fruits or veggies, especially anything stringy (like celery or asparagus). It's funny how NUTs can differ.

Well Jenz it sounds like your doing good. Congrats on 20 lbs lost!

Mine said this as well.

Mine said this as well.

Mine too, and not for a while. Did they mean to chew ad spit it out?

or maybe they meant for the liquid pre op diet?

I don't care if I have to spit it out. Lol. I just need to chew something. Lol I know it's all mental but I am sooooooo tired of liquids

Try some frozen green beans with a touch of sea salt - that helped me when I was in liquid phase to have a cup of beans, especially since I was in need of anything with a salt taste. Be careful not to over do it though on the salt!

I licked the seasoning off of some sun dried tomato flavored wheat thins my first week. About 4 or 5 a day...it was like heaven in my mouth.

Then I gave the freshly licked crackers to my dog, and she was happy to get them. It's like we both got a treat.

or maybe they meant for the liquid pre op diet?

I am referring to the preop liquid diet
