I am on my last day of the diet as I have surgery tomorrow. You can do it! It will be the longest two weeks ever so it is important to keep yourself as occupied as ever. I dove head first into making my transition home after surgery a better one. I accomplished home projects, sorted through clothes, got ready for the X-mas holiday and thoroughly cleaned the house. Definitely kept me busy and my mind off of the diet. After I got through the first few days of it, it really was better. I didn't have to cheat as my doctor allows 4 oz. of meat and 1/2 c. of veggies daily. So was very thankful for that.

I had horrible headaches the first week....take some Tylenol and drink lots of water. Dont forget about your protein. It is very hard to get your calories in when your on this liquid diet, sometimes adding some peanut butter to a shake will help. There were some days that I tried and tried to get calories but only got around 400. I can eat all the yogurt I want...(I use Krogers Carbmaster yogurt which is only 4 carbs which is amazing when it comes to yogurt) I also got the New Whey Protein shots and took one ounce every 3 hours because your body will only absorb 10 grams of protein in 3 hours. My doctor also said I can have cottage cheese (YUCK) but thats also a choice.

My liquid diet was really strict Myoplex lite, raw veggies and water. Today is the last day. My surgery is tomorrow. Today Is definitely the hardest for me. It's not hard to resist other foods but I anxious to get past today. My best advice is to keep busy.

Good luck tomorrow! You have this in the bag. I am also so so so anxious, I am having surgery in 6 days. To top it off I have finals this week and cant use comfort foods to help.

I agree with MRSblues. Keep busy, study hard, good wishes!
