My surgery is Jan 14 and started my liquid diet yesterday. Not great, but hanging in there and like a few others just talking myself through it - saying its temporary! I'm slightly hungry but hoping day three changes that. I, too, have same appts to accomplish this week! Plus 40 your work week and figuring out how to get all that in. I have MS, so I already have issues with extreme fatigue, but really trying to take it easy and rest as much as possible! Glad I found the forum and let's keep each other posted, if possible as we face our surgeries this week and next!
