I found that my body got used to the liquid diet after the first week and then it wasn't as bad. I drank my shakes at the same time every day and it became a routine.

I promise it is much better after surgery. Your appetite will be right in line with your ability to eat.

Good luck!

I'm on day three... I'm emotional. Cried about manicotti last night I don't even care for it. I see the surgeon tomorrow for pre op appointment. Best of luck and prayers to all my porky comrades.

I'm on day 6 of clear liquid diet. Sleeve Surgery is on Friday! There's been some rough moments, but I've toughed it out and all I can say is Protein shakes and organic BONE BROTH!!! The sugar free Jello popsicles are a life saver. Cold, crunchy and sweet gives you the sense of eating. I've lost 15 pounds in the last 7 weeks. But most of it was this week. Ready to get this done! Good luck everyone

I'm ending day 2 of 14. Looking towards the light at the end of the tunnel. I'm only allowed liquids. I'm drinking Premier Protein for bfk and dinner and broth with genpro for lunch. My doctor directed me to stay within 400-600 cal and 70 grams of Protein. I'm drinking 80-100 ounces of Water. As stated above the sugar free popsicles have been a nice addition. I lost 3 1/2 lbs after the first day. I've always been told the first 10lbs is Water weight and it comes off quickly. My surgery date is November 22nd. I'm excited and impatient.

I only had to do one week of liquids pre-op and it was definitely the hardest thing so far, for me anyway. I am 9 weeks post-op today. The hunger will definitely get better. Hang in there and good luck to you. ☺

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
