I'm on day 4 of pre op. Struggling at times but I haven't cheated... I am on full liquids so cottage cheese, cream Soups and yogurt are ok. I mix all my protein in with those typically. But it's getting old, quick. I feel your pain. A lot more difficult then I imagined it would be.

That would be tough. I'm glad that my husband has been making dinner for the kids. They have been enjoying pizzas a lot lately, lol!

I just can't stand the idea of cooking and not eating it. So my hats off to you! I love the coloring book idea.

Hang in there. I just kept telling myself 'if I can't do this I shouldn't have to surgery...the change begins now!' Just keep fighting the food thoughts. Surgery will be here before you know it. I was able to have 2 cups of vegetables a day. I made cabbage Soup that was amazing after a day of protein shakes. Can you have vegetables? Recipe- half head cabbage, fat free beef broth, can petite diced tomatoes, diced celery and onions. Bring to boil...simmer for an hour. Good luck!

I am on day 10 it does get better, my surgery is tomorrow. Ever time I felt hungry I drank a bottle of Water or a glass of crystal light. Felt like I was sloshing when I walked but it did help with the hunger. Good luck you can do this

Try to think of it as the beginning of a wonderful new life! A fast sounds like such a dreadful thing.

One thing that I realized during my pre-op diet.....that I was never going to feel this desperately hungry again while dieting after surgery. I am 5.5 weeks post op now, and it has been completely true.

This is the hungriest you will ever be. It's all about to change.

When I fast I kept busy. I worked with children, I serviced my clients, and I went to clubs only to dance and mingle. I was 258 starting out then with fasting and staying busy I lost ten pounds before surgery. My surgery was August 24th and as of today I have lost 40 lbs. I try to walk 30 minutes a day and eat right
