I have not started my diet but a lot of people on here have said drinking a lot of Water and adding sugar free Jello and broth as Snacks may help. My doctor is allowing me to have water based vegetables like cucumbers.

I am sorry I could not be of better assistance. Also, have you tried being busy? I find when I am busy doing things, I no desire to eat.

I am right there with you. My surgery date is 3/16. I am on day 6 on the liquid diet. My surgeon only allows liquids for the full two weeks before surgery and for two weeks after. I am so hungry now! Today I tried some broth, and that helped a lot with the cravings for savory foods since all of the protein drinks I have tried are sweet. It's going to be a long 10 days until the surgery date. I wish you well as you prepare.
