Tomorrow March 24 starts my liquid diet, and my surgery is March 31. It's going to take much will power to get through this liquid diet and I know it won't be easy but it can be done!

You can do it! Stay motivated! Good luck to you

Thanks so much @@Elode ????. On day two and I'm already feeling the struggle.

If you just stick with it, it gets easier once your body gets use to it. Just don't go to long between shakes (if that's what you get?) drink lots of water if that helps? ( that's didn't help me because water has always made me more hungry but it helps for most people) I eventually had to break down and get some zzzquil because I was wide awake at night thinking about food so I would take a dose and sleep all night. I also stayed away from food, smell ect as much as I could. I eat in my room a lot while the family ate.,all in all it stinks but it's totally doable. I never cheated and it was over before I knew it. It's also fun to Brag about later

The preop isn't too bad. There were a few times I snuck a lil something. Not that I encourage that. I am 8 days post op & feel perfectly fine. No issues whatsoever.

Best of luck of your journey. It's completely doable!

@@Elode I am on three protein shakes a day plus I can have some yogurt to get my extra calcium in. I am also drinking water on the in between as well. I'm trying to space everything out as best as possible. Thank you for the advice!

@@reelreilly thank you as well! I am definitely doing my best ????

Zzquill is a great idea. Thank u. I laid in bed till close to midnight, I couldn't fall asleep.

I'm on my 2nd day, anyone else have any other tips

@@meSparkle83 I had to or I would have lost it! Night time was the worst for me.

I'm on my fourth day and it's actually going pretty well. I'm drinking premier protein shakes, eating Popsicles & jello and drinking lots of water... The first couple days were harder, today I haven't really felt hungry much ????
