Day 1 of liquid diet down. -_- didn't think I could do it. But I did. Been eating Jello and popsicles' date=' lol so tomorrow buying apple juice, more jello and popsicles and more instant breakfast. 12 more days of this and then day before surgery only clear liquids! I can do this...But don't want to! Lol[/quote']

Gia24- it gets so much easier after the third day I promise! The 2nd and 3rd day are the toughest but hang in there! I slept most of my liquid diet days away to pass the time quicker! It helps! Stay strong your almost there!

Yeah, I haven't slept much in the last two days, I had my pre-op testing today, so had to fast, once I got home I down 2 shakes and crashed, down the other 2 once I woke up and been eating sf jello and sf popsicles A lot to curb my appetite. The only things that bother me is the the food commercials on tv! Lol they suck!

Tentatively set for August 21; still waiting final insurance approval. Get to start 2week liquids on Wednesday!!

My surgeon didn't put me on a pre-op diet but I' m compelled to do at least 2-3 days of it. Can anyone share their diet with me?

I need to start this on Sun and God knows I'm already mourning food!'

Hi Tina--my preop diet consists of: 60 gr of protein thru protein drinks, clear liquids (tea, coffee, crystal light, clear broth), sugar free jello and sugar free Popsicles.

August 13th lets go!!!

So excited for you! Nothing to worry for! I was a mess before my surgery too cried to anyone that even said hi to me :) but ended up being extremely easy! Wishing u a speedy recovery! I can almost hardly believe Thursday will already be a week out!!!! In my thoughts and prayers!!

T-14 days! Started my liver shrink diet this morning. Had an awesome protein shake from almond milk and natural peanut butter this morning. Just scarfed down a bowl of green beans and drank a muscle milk for lunch. I know I can be disciplined for these two weeks, but a few prayers here and there for me wouldn't be denied... ;)
