I start my 10 day pre-op diet tomorrow,.& Im more scared about it then after surgery... Theirs so much i cannot have, Im worried i will feel hungry?

Pre op diet is hard! But you just have to remember what you are doing it for. I didn't cheat a single time on my pre op diet, and being able to say that makes me feel so proud! My words of encouragement are to get a bunch of different proteins. I used a lot of the nectar products because they came in a single serv. that way I could try a different one throughout the 10 days. Sf jello and popscicles helped. Also broth was nice at dinner because then I didn't feel like I was completely missing out. Goodluck! Best of wishes and just know YOU CAN DO IT!

Good luck I start Monday two weeks after surgery and two weeks b4. No jello,pudding broth just protein drinks. I hve strapped my seat belt on and I am embracing the ride. Yahoooooo!!! Lol (talk to me 3 days in))))

I too will be starting my pre-op diet in just a few short days (Wednesday). I am terrified about it. I feel like it is this huge test and if I fail I won't really be ready for the commitment of surgery. So I'm trying my best to be prepared. I'll also be traveling while on my diet and I'm hoping that limits my exposure rather than making it more difficult. At least I will be away from all this good south Louisiana good!

I'll be thinking of each of you! Best of luck!!!

End of day 1! I did great...and the protein drink was actually good! 9 more days to go!

Keep it up girl! I hear the first 4 days are the hardest.

This pre-op diet is horrible...what i dont understand is why some ppl are on strict liquids and some are high protein (me) , i guess it could be worse :/

I am in day 4 preop diet not a problem. For those of u having problems look at the goal, whatever is going to get u to the finish line is worth it. Is it what we would like to do NO, but we hve done what we like and look where it has got us! We hve been blessed with an opportunity of a life time. What has helped me is I made a list of things I am going to do, in my new body, the people I will inspire. You have to look at the goal, where u r now is just the journey enjoy it and write down each struggle. So when u get to the other side and want to recapture old habits look back at your struggles. We are a lot stronger than people give us credit for. Enjoy each experience good and bad, each one plays an important role in your success. Be blessed.

I know! I agree, its getting better,.but its not easy. But im not giving up just venting a little, no harm in that right?

No harm intended just keeping focus
