It is definately hard but it does get easier. I had a headache for the first four days but i then went on to constantly sweat for two days and then i got a huge burst of energy! It was so weird. I was sleeved on wednesday, its saturday and im going home and i feel awesome! I believe had i not stayed on the pre surgery diet i wouldnt be recovering as well. Keep up the good work and even though it sux think positive! This diet is getting you ready for your new life- if you stick to it 100% you will ace the recovery and you will be used to it for when you do start your clear fluids diet after the op. goodluck!

Hey! I was operated on yesterday at 3pm. Last night i got up just on midnight and went to toilet assisted. An hour later i went unassisted.

Hi girls, Im getting my surgery on the 26th of this month in sydney. Ive been on the liver shrink diet for three days and im getting excited about my surgery, i havent cheated yet. i have good willpower- i gave up smoking after fifteen years cold turkey so im confident ill do well.Im 173cm tall and i weigh 112 kilos. I packed it on after giving up smokes almost two years ago. I was only 87 kilos when i gave birth to my daughter four years ago so tipping the scales at triple digits makes me cry. Im keen to find out how much weight you both have lost in the first few weeks and if you have any advice id love to hear it.
