I started mine yesterday. What is your diet? I am allowed full sugar free liquids which includes yogurt, pudding, Jello and hot cereals. I have to keep it to 1000 cals a day and zero solids. I only got 700 in yesterday and got a lecture from myfitnesspal about how it wouldn't show me my averages to help discourage me from eating unhealthy. I was more prepared today for work and brought my Jello and stuff with me. I only did shakes yesterday and though I was going to die.

@@tagyourit, I have to drink Protein shakes a day. I can also drink calorie free drinks such as Crystal Light. I suppose to consume no more than 900 calories a day, at the most. I'm logging my calories in Lose it. You are doing awesome so far. How long is your pre-op diet?

Good luck! I'm on day four (surgery on 22nd) but I'm allowed some food. In some ways it hasn't been as bad as I was expecting but of course it's early days yet. The hardest part has been being around others eating foods I like.

Day three and I have to say yesterday was rough. I think I cried at one point. I realized that everything I could have was sweet and I just wanted something savory and crunchy. Going to get some broths and Soups to help but I know the smooth liquid texture is going to get old fast. Today was a bit easier and I will say that donuts were brought into the office and I never went near them. I knew if I went close they would be in my belly. Stayed strong but dangit I wanted one so bad.

How are y'all dealing mentally? Am I the only one thinking this is crazy torture?

@@tagyourit, you are doing awesome because donuts are my weakness and I would have broke. I do think it's torture. I probably pass out from just eating liquids for 21 days!

I only have 2 weeks, you have 3, way harder. Today went really well. My husband and I went to a movie at the mall. He had Chick-fil-A and I brought my cup of Soup. We then started looming at people trying to guess what my new body will look like.

The best part of the day is the morning because I weigh myself first thing. It is definitely dropping. I have been using hot herbal tea to replace the coffee and it helps somewhat. food is boring now so I'm seeing how important food and thinking and planning for meals has been in my life.

I picked up some Vitamin Water today. 8 am hoping it will give another flavor to shake things up. I agree that it is showing me how much thought and emotion I put into food. You are going great too!!!!
