Well it's day two of my pre-opt liquid diet and I'm starving. I can hear my co-workers crunching away on food:(

I feel your pain. I'm on day three. How many weeks do you have? I have to do 3. I don't have co-workers, but family to deal with.

2 weeks so I guess I can't complain too much

I wish I only had 2...alas it seems every doc has their own way.

Just curious...is the preop liquid diet...liquids only (all 3meals). I'm just starting the process.

Really depends on the doctor. Some are two shakes and just one meal with 4oz of meat two cups of veggies, others three shakes a day, some don't have pre opt diet, so many variations

Ugh yesterday (day 2) was worse than today. I have to have 5 shakes a day (already sick of them) ... then I get one serving of starch, fruit and veggie a day. I wish I could have some meat! Switching things around here and there to see what works best. It all sucks but it'll all be worth it in the end....or at least what I'm telling myself to get through thelse 2 damn weeks! Good luck to everyone!

Hang in there. I'm 7 days post op and the liquid diet sucked for the first 5 or so days. After that, I felt great, had a ton of energy and wasn't even hungry. It'll get better.

This gives me hope because I feel like I am dying on day 2 lol. My body is detoxing and making me feel ill (massive headache, night sweats, vomitting) just a few more days. It's crazy that I have done this to my body and all of the toxins that are in me. The way I feel right now just confirms that I have a serious food addiction.

Hang in the ladies.

I just started my pre-op diet today for 10 days. I'm praying I can make it through this part.

I have to do full liquid for 7 days pre op. I'm kind of looking forward to it.

I ratherdo full liquid diet pre op. Thank way you don't have to think about it. Just drink it.

That's what I'm saying! [emoji23]

So glad you posted this. I am on day 7 of a 2 week pre-op protein shake diet; and am STARVING!! I am beginning to get concerned with my experience after the ByPass.. will I feel like this most of the time? Right now I can eat some lettuce when it gets really bad, but after the procedure solid food will be a long way off.

From my understanding you will not feel starving after the surgery you will be struggling just to get your protein in right after surgery, let's hope so [emoji120]!
