This diet is getting the best of me

My surgeon had me start the 2 protein meal replacements shakes and one meal a day. I can have small snack in between IF I feel hungry. Okay so first week was great I was on track doing fab. Now sometimes I feel like I'm starving. I've got 2 more months before surgery and feel like I'm failing more and more each day. I knew going into this it wasn't going to be easy. Hoping after the surgery I don't have that hunger. Side note.... Only need to lose 10 lbs. I have! I drink drink drink water thinking that would help with hunger and does a little but I'm struggling. Can anyone relate to this? Any suggestions for me?

Wow that's a seriously long pre-op diet! I can say that my hunger difference between pre-op and post-op was night and day. I felt very hungry even when they were wheeling me in for surgery. Post-op was like they turned off the hunger switch. I hope it goes the same for you

Are you allowed other low-cal/low-sugar items like Gelatin, popsicles, cottage cheese, non-starchy vegetables, and so on?
