tishissweet 15 Posted August 28, 2012 Had my last pre op appointment today before surgery. Sept 4th can't come soon enough....I'M STARVING! Agreed! I started Wednesday, which was a few days earlier than I needed to. Yesterday (well it's still my today since I work nights) was rough! I was finally satisfied by some beef broth. I find the warm liquids make me feel more full. Anyone else getting that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Barisaxylady 154 Posted August 28, 2012 I'm not till Sept 25th. Hate how busy my Dr is that Sept 25 is the earliest open date! I haven't been put on any liquid diets yet but I decided to try a modified one to get me started. Protein Shakes and Water all day and sensible dinner. What a b***h I've become until dinner time! Headaches and omg I'm moody! How do you get around this? Going back to teaching in a few days until my surgery date. I can't be a b***h to my students. My 3 and 5 year olds are driving me nuts! Any advice? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sleevedreamz 107 Posted August 28, 2012 Sounds tough! I feel like I am the luckiest person ever bc my doctor only requires a 1 day liquid diet. I wish I knew what to tell you. One thing I would try is an energy drink that is sugar free or super low in sugar (if those are allowed, but should be). And, make sure it's an energy drink with B Vitamins bc this will greatly improve your mood. I drink Spark energy drinks from advocare. My husband and I like the fruit punch and it mixes in Water so it has flavor plus gives you amazing energy. If you do order, order the canister bc it is cheaper and lasts longer. I do a spoonful and a half every morning and every afternoon. Add to water bottle, shake, and drink. I did have some samples I could have mailed you, but I've given them all away. I have to order another canister of that and the Meal Replacement shakes today bc we are out. I use both and love both. The only energy drink that works for me (and is sugar free so my husband can drink bc he is diabetic). Also, these are the only meal replacement shakes I can stomach and are approved by my nutritionist. Weblink below. www.AdvoCare.com/120531202 Sept 25th will be here before you know it. I'll try to keep posting as I go through everything and you can keep me posted as well. Good luck going back to school. I bet it'll be fine! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
