What are you concerns? ....Yes, you will be hungry. Yes, you will probably get wicked headaches. Yes, you will be fatigued. Yes, the head hunger and cravings will be a bitch. Yes, it will be really hard and you may feel like you can't do it. BUT yes, you can do it...we all did. And yes, it is worth it. Those two weeks will soon be a distant memory and you'll wonder what all the fuss was about. In the meantime, do a search for protein drinks on here and/or visit the nutrition subforum for tons of ideas of different shake ideas because you will be drinking a lot of them and you don't wanna get bored ????

You will be fine! A lot of us have done it and succeeded , you will too.

This is my first day on site thanks for support

We have the same surgery date! =)

GOOD LUCK!!!

I'm February 9th too! I'm getting SO excited. Finally!!

It gets easier the further in you get in the pre liquid diet. My body/stomach got use to it too. I wasn't as hungry towards the end. I even went to a restaurant and just got chicken noodle soup and ate the broth. The first several days were tough. Just fight through it and by day 3-5 you will be much better!

I've decided to go for a practice run, I didn't want it to be a complete system shock when I start the official liver shrink on the 26th, the headaches are no joke. But glad to hear it gets better!!

I am on day 8 of the liquid pre op diet and it has gotten so much easier. I had two days of bad headaches but since then, other than being hungry and being sick of jello, it is fine now. My surgery is one week from today and I have jumped through all the hoops and all there is to do now is show up the 19th at 7:00 am. Can't believe it is finally here!
