I'm excited my surgery date is getting close. Not too happy with the 2 week liquid diet. I'm on day 2 of pre op liquid diet. Any suggestions on what to eat?

_{Just keep counting the days down! I was on the pre-surgery liquid diet for two weeks also. I just wanted to chew something! if I got really hungry I just went to bed! LOL!!!!!!!!!! You will make it. It seems like it lasts forever but will be over before you know it. Before you know it you will be having that first scrambled egg when you are on soft food after surgery. It will be the best thing you ever tasted! You will do just great.}

Thank you. I'm so hungry even got a migraine today. Any suggestions what I can have at this phase?

This is the handout I received from my NUT:

Morning Meal:

1 serving Protein shake

1/2c. outmeal (plain/unflavored), farina, grits, and other hot cereals (do not add butter or sugar)

Snack:

1 c. sugar-free pudding

lunch:

1 serving of Protein Shake

6 oz. fat-free, low sugar yogurt (<20 grams sugar/serving)

Snack:

Sugar-free Gelatin

dinner:

1 serving of Protein Shake

1/2 c. unsweetened applesauce

Bedtime Snack:

1 serving of Protein Shake

6 oz. fat-free, low sugar yogurt (<20 grams sugar/serving)

1200 calories per day

60 - 80 grams protein per day (women: 60; men: 80)

<= 100 - 125 grams of total carbohydrate per day (women: <= 100g; men: <=125)

Thank you that was very helpful
