Just take it one day at a time! sugar free pospicles were my savior, I like the sugar free bomb pops, you can crunch on them so you get the chew factor. By day 3, not much sounded good anymore and I wasn't very hungry, but then again, I only had to do it for 5 days.

You can do this!

My pre-op was only 1 day. Funny how different doctors have different guidelines. Maybe it goes by individual?

I dont know what youre preop diet consists of but I will tell you that day 1 for me I wanted to eat my arm!! I was SOOOOO hungry and wondered how I would do it for 10 days. BUT...day 2 was SOOOO much easier and I ended up breezing through the 10 days without a single slip up. YOU CAN DO IT!! Mind over matter...it's a short time when compared to the rest of your life! :) Stay strong friend!!

My pre-op diet is only Clear Liquids. I am not sure how creative you can get with clear liquids for 5 days.

Today is day two for me and I'm hearing so many people say the can have one meal and sugar free Jello. Mine is pure liquid. 3-4 Protein Shakes and unlimited Water or propel. Yesterday was hard but today is better. I weight myself and lost 2 lbs so this helps me to want to do better. Keep focused. You'll do great.

I am on day 3 and its getting better. I was provided a list of acceptable Proteins like beef Jerky, turkey weiners, eggs etc along w the Protein shakes. I'm equipped and prepared for these next 9 days.

I think the first two was torture!

We can do it!
