Liquid diet well frankly...

It sucks! I'm so hungry and ill. I think my husband would stick me out on the lawn if he could. Lol. My doctors office has me on a max of 30 grams daily of liquid Protein and I'm just starving!

I just needed to complain for a moment. Ugh... I only have 2 more days and then it's Surgery day!! Something to look forward to.

It will be more than worth it in the end. Congrats on your upcoming surgery! Keep us updated. :)

My pre-op diet was a couple of weeks of 3 Protein bars or shakes a day, and a cup of fresh or steamed veg, then a week of just the Protein Shakes. The first week was tough ... was so hungry I was about ready to chew off my own arm! I was worried about how hard the final week of just liquids would be but it was actually pretty easy. I think because I knew I was on the home straight, the time flew by!

Good luck with your surgery ... it'll all be worth it once you're on the other side of things. ;)

I'm doing better now. I mean it's still tough, but I think my body has decided we just don't eat anymore. LOL The only times I get really hungry is at night and I think that is because I used to be a really big night time eater.

TOMORROW is the big day and I'm super excited!

30 gms Protein per day? That sounds very low. Mine is 115 gm/day. I'm still hungry but probably not nearly as much as you are!

@@drmeow Yes, 30 grams of Protein a day. Crazy huh? lol. I was reading where everyone else can have multiple protein shakes a day and I'm over here like.. must be nice! haha

But I'm doing okay, I have had my moments of weakness where I wanted a salad or something, but fought the temptation.

Wanted to see how you were doing? Surgery go ok for you? Hope your recovery is gentle too????
