Day 2 of liquid diet I am so hungry!!!!

Hi, day 2 was the hardest for me too. I'm now on day 4 and yesterday and today seem to be much easier (boring but easier). They do say the first 3 days are the hardest and it was the same when I tried doing the Lighterlife diet. So keep going and fingers crossed tomorrow will be easier. It's nice to know I'm not alone on this pre op diet as it's tougher than I think most people predict. I'm sure this will all be worth it in the long term.

My surgery is in 4 days and I was only asked to do liquids for 2 days. I believe it is because of cash pay. But I am wondering if you guys have any pointers for me? I have little ones and I cook for them a lot

Mine is though insurance and my pre op diet is also 2 days liquids.

I have young kids and i still had to cook for them while doing my pre op. Mine was 16 days of all liquids only.

Honestly, the only way i could do it was this. I would cook the family meal while sipping my protein powder broth. Once it was served i would vanish to a hot bath.

On pizza days i still vanish to the bath and im now 5 months post op.

Hang in there im on day two as well. We can do it!!

Hi Roses1223, looks like were having it on the same day (25th), so exciting. I don't envy you having to cook for others but just try and keep I mind it will all be worth it. I'd try doing what gomekast suggested and maybe just try and keep changing your yoghurt flavours. I've also found the oxo cube with hot Water quite satisfying after just having the yoghurts, maybe having one of those when the kids eat will help?
