Surgery date May 5 started my pre op diet today I'm starving. I've had two shakes veggies Yogurt sf ff jello. Anyone else struggling?

the first few days are the worst...I think about day 3 is when I tapered off and was okay... your body is going thru a detox... drink something hot, that helps a bit... you'll get thru it!

Good luck and congrats!

I am drinking 5 carnations (no sugar) w 5 grams of protein added to it (injury) w 2% milk a day. It's very satisfying to real hunger! The head hunger ( what I think is just used to filling my mouth when ever I want! Takes a lot of Will power! I just sip water. Get all the tempting food out of your house! Box it up. U can do it. May 1st is my VS day!

Don't forget, you may qualify for free protein, scar cream and vitamins thru your insurance thru InsureNutrition.com... go to the website and fill out the form... !!!

I'm on day one of 2 weeks. I think I missed my coffee the most. I'm just really emotional now that this is actually happening. I also have PMS so that isn't helping matters. I'm trying to get creative with my shakes. I'm sure I'll be tired of looking at them soon enough. I just have to keep my eye on the prize and muscle through it. Hang in there and know you are not alone!

I am on day 1 of my pre-op liquid diet. My surgeon is only having us do liquids for 48 hours though.

It's getting a little better as night falls snacking tonight will be hard not to do since I don't go to bed until late. Day one is about complete. I also read a website how to change shake flavors and such by adding sf ff pudding mix about a table spoon per scoop of protein. The choc. W choc. Pudding mix is great you can also add the dehydrated pb2 peanut butter not sure about before surgery though. And lastly I made a strawberry shake w sf ff cheesecake pudding mix it was great. We're all in this together.

I used a lot. of sf flavored. syrups (splenda). sold online sometimes at Marshalls Good luck to each of you on is wonderful life changing journey.
