Still sucks, extremely tired, head still hurts but not nearly as bad as day 1. STARVING!!! However the irritability and urge to strangle stupid people is much better today than it was yesterday . If I recall correctly from last time, day 4 was where I started feeling semi-human again....looks like I'm right on track for that again. Only 12 1/2 more days of this!!!!

Ill be in your shoes starting Feb 10th for my 10 day preop diet. I can't even imagine....

I am off coffee, all carbonated drinks and only drinking Water. I've started the sugar detox by limiting carbs to only at night. I need to work on chewing, and ONLY sipping not gulping!

Good luck, keep posting I like seeing everyone's day and emotions and what I have to face myself!

Ugh! Day 2 also, but I only have to do this 5 days before and 3 days after! I'm hungry now, but I feel good after a very rough start.

my doctor didn't give a length of how long I'll be on it instead how much weight I'll need to lose on it

Day 6...yesterday was ok...but today I am starving...I do 5 optifast shakes a day and water.

Omg I have been feeling like this since I stopped drinking soda, and I haven't even begun my Optifast shakes until 2/19! Uuugh!... I just think that at the end it will be so worth it

Soccer momma, we have the same surgery date. I am seriously struggling with this pre op diet. I feel like crap. I hope it feels better than this after surgery.

I'll be on liquids but I have to drink a certain amount of juice every day post-op and I really think that will help. I think the no carb thing is what's kicking my butt:/. Not really starving any more like I was last week though, so yay!!!

Where ya from Kelly?
