I am on my 2nd day for me 3 day post op diet. I just drank lots of water to keep my belly full lol.... you can have chicken broth, and sugar free popsicles

If it's actual hunger, Protein shakes will help. If it's head hunger, the best thing to do is distract yourself. Get up and walk away from where food is available.

I dont think im eating enough! All ive had today was a protein shake , a greek yogurt and a jello , a cup of soup and a yogurt

I could only have shakes, broth, sugar free jello, and sf popsicles. It wasn't bad I made it work by drinking lots of water and making sure not to go to long without a shake. It's 99% willpower and mind control!

The one thing that worked the best for me was to come here or on Fb and look through everyone's journey's. Before and After photos especially. It's tough! But you can do it. Hang in there.

I'm day 8 liquids only pre-op. This liquid diet is no joke. It's much harder than I thought it would be. I have to be honest I feel like crap and I'm starving all the time. It drives me crazy when I see others had shakes during the day and a sensible dinner. I've been living on sf ice pops and sf jello. I'm supposed to drink 3-4 shakes per day and I'm only getting in 1-2. (But on the bonus side I'm down 23 lbs in one week). I'm really getting psyched out and fearing this next week and the first few days post op. Starting to get depressed

Im day 2 and in irritated! Everyones getting in my nerves and every where i go theres food!! Apparently i did yesterday all wrong too!! Only 10 days left

Keep going!!! After the first 5 days you get used use to it!! Had 3-4 shakes a day. This is the time to find out what your made of..

We went in a group to Mexico and two of the 4 of us was really strict and the other two were eating and cheating up to surgery day.. The cheaters end up with an extra row of staples and complications and not to mention a 50 % less weight loss then me and the other girl who has made the commitment to the process.

You have a full 6 weeks after surgery where you are on liquid and purée foods so pick up your big girl pants cause it's your time to shine!

You can do it!!!!!!!!
