I have almost completed day three of my liquid. Yes, I am proud of myself for not cheating, even though I really want to. This is harsh!!!! I can have 1 cup of sugar free jello, 5 carnation sugar free instant breakfast shakes, and water per day. DEAR GOD HELP ME, PLEASE!!!!! If anyone has any tricks or hints to get through this please share!!! Also, what is a decent tasting chewable vitamin to get. I currently have Centrum chewable orange multivitamin. Yuck! Lol!!!

Yes big change is coming

I was told just do Water and yogurt for 3 days prior to surgery. So am I insane for starting the 14 day liquid diet like everyone else??? Figured I might as well get a head start and get use to the diet for post op. Today is day 1, lets see how this goes.

I did low carb for a week before the 2 week liquid diet. I wanted as much weight off as possible before surgery.

Has anyone had an EDG? Is it bad? Pain? Do you remember it???

Well day two of the liquid diet. Day 1 sucked beyond belief. Was fine until about 6pm last night. Had the worst migraine ever so that was no fun. Up at 5:45 to go to work for a 24 hour shift. We will see how this goes....

The hardest part of my journey was the liquid diet.

Yuck!!!! Hang in there. I would say it will get better but I'm day 9 and it sucks!!!!! Keep looking at what we are working for. We are so close!!!!

Damn this is hard!!!!!! No headache today but @*#* I'm hungry! I think what makes it worse is I don't even have to do this 2 week pre op diet. I'm not sure I can hold on

I'm going all liquid tell surgery can have salad chicken for dinner just think less is better for right before the cutting

Keep up the good work! Just think that you are preparing your body to get through surgery better and you are detoxing. Keep up your water intake to flush everything your liver has been holding on to out. And when you get really frustrated do something to make you sweat for ten minutes. My therapist taught me that trick and its helped a lot when I need an attitude adjustment :-). Best of luck on your journey!
