  1. Scared about pre op diet. How can you feel full on a liquid protein shake? How did you get through two weeks of it??

      I too had two weeks of liquid diet before my surgery and while yes I did have some headaches and hunger pains it is really doable. You should be able to drink anywhere between 4-6 protein shakes a day and reason for the protein shakes it so it keeps your fuller for longer. You can also speak to your nut or surgeon about having clear broths inbetween those shakes as well. Stay strong cause in the long run it is worth it for you will have a safer and healthier start to your journey. Good luck!

      It was actually far easier than I expected. I did find taking time drinking each shake it seemed to work better than if I drank it down in a hurry.I did make mine with ice in them which made them seems thicker and again they took longer to drink. It is worth any hunger you go through to reach the goal of surgery. Good luck and congratulations on making this change in your life.

      You can do it! After about 2 1/2 days your hunger really drops down too. Hang in there!
