Hi......... I know how you feel! ..... I'm on day 2 also! My dietician told me it was ok to had "flavorings" & it does help, some. She also said, if we can make it through day 2, it will get easier! (Wondering if she had to do this....lol) .... that is when our body starts to burn stored fat. Well....that part sounded good! ..... .......... Hope this helps! Sept. 25th is my surgery.

Ok what are y'all eating on your week before all liquid diet? !?!?

Probably not making my dietitian happy right now, I tried to keep it as healthy as possible but I did make my husband take me out for a last meal at Olive Garden so I could eat salad with some bread sticks (I limited myself to 2 although I wanted a lot more) and because I've been making better choices and my appetite is a lot different, I couldn't even come close to eating my whole entree.

gotcha - misunderstood! no olive garden then ha!

Here's what my days have been looking like.....

I had an all liquid diet for 2 weeks... into my second week....

start the day at 8 AM with a Protein Shake (Slimfast Advanced Protein), 10 AM sugar free Jello, 12 Protein shake, 2 PM broth (chicken), 4 pm protein shake, 5 pm sugar free Popsicle, 6pm protein shake, evening sugar free Popsicle and jello

During the day I drink Crystal Light and lots of water....

Mine is on the 27th. I started my Optifast shakes last week and continue on them until surgery. It's hard. I have cheated and had a couple bites of chicken and broccoli twice because my body felt drained and I had no energy. It seemed to help. Hopefully won't hurt me any.
What are you guys planning on doing after surgery for meals after all liquids are over? Puréed anything sounds awful. They said try to get in all my Proteins with food before supplementing shakes but a blended chicken breast sounds disgusting!!

Good luck guys!

I'm with you. The puree stage grosses me out. I'm not sure what I am going to eat. Good Luck on your surgery.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
