It's got a ?? I haven't got my band in yet but I've starts changing my eating habits or Atleast trying too. Has anyone tried the liquid diet before u were approved ?? I was thinking of trying it just to see and prepare my self . My biggest fear is that when I get on the full 2 week liquid diet that I will have a hard time. I work a fast paid job and need my strength and energy .

I did the 2 week liquid diet prior to surgery and found it alot easier than I thought it would be. I used a high Protein shake, Premier Protein and it kept me full. I had my worries, but it was ok. The hardest part for me was that I usually eat out with my co workers and had to cut that out for a while. I felt cut off from the world.

Well haven't been approved yet but just trying to make some changes ,, just thought about trying a 3 day liquid diet just to give me an ideal. Ya know just mentally preparing my self for this big change .

I've thought about doing 3 days ever so often just to kind of "reboot", but every time i say I'm going to, I just cant get motiviated. I may try it too.

I like to try it but I want to wait till June ,, I'm hoping I'll find out if I'm approved ,keeping my fingers crossed .

Fingers crossed with you.

The first three days are the most difficult so just know that it won't be as hard for a full two or three week a liquid diet -- and also some surgeons don't even have patients do a ore-op at all. I had two weeks and started in early as I was so excited and needed to do something. Also now once in a while I go liquids for a day or two for that reboot -- thanks for the reminder as maybe I'll do that again as well. Good luck as you wait for approval -- thinking of you!

Thanks I'm trying to psych my self out for it but really like to try .
