So, my surgery is scheduled for May 16th. I'm supposed to start my 2 week diet on Monday the 2nd. My diet sounds like a really easy one compared those who have an all liquid diet.....My diet is one Protein drink and two small very low carb meals (lean meat and non starchy veggie) and of course the normal sugar free Popsicles and Jello............So I was thinking just to kick myself off to a good start I would do two days (today and tomorrow) all liquids..... and then Monday switch to my plan's diet.

I can't really say why I want to do this and maybe that's the "stupid" part.....but what does everyone think. Am I just overly excited to get started, or do you think two days of all liquids will make me appreciate my real 2 week diet even more and make it easier for me to stick to??? Thoughts?

Thanks,

Kathy

My pre-op diet was 2 weeks of Protein shakes 3 times a day with 1 Greek yogurt snack, sugar free Jello, and broth. I started early by drinking 1 shake per day for 3 days, then 2 shakes per day for 3 days, then the 3 per day just so I could work up to it. It was still difficult the first 3 days of it, but not as bad if I had not prepared. I'm 1 week post-op now, and still on this diet for 1 more week. I am going to be so glad to see pureed food lol. But I have lost 40 lbs so it pays off. Good luck, and I don't think it's stupid.
