First Day Of Liquid Diet....13 To Go! (Last Supper)

[NCsleever63 53]

This is going to be hard. I have never done anything like this without having some type of appetite supressent. But, I will stick to it and I am hoping it goes by fast.

I did go and have my "last supper" last ***ht, it included chocolate moulton cake from Chili's....I know bad, but I am pretty sure it will be a LONGGGGG time before I ever taste it again. Did anyone else have a last supper? I hope Im not alone!

I wanted to, but this month just flew by for me working a lot and tried to get everything to work. I did get in my hot and sour Soup before my surgery, which I was happy about. I am 100% that you are not alone, I'm pretty sure most people have had a last supper =)

It's okay to treat yourself a little, you're gonna have a long time of having to be good.

Oh yes went out for a blow out meal with hubby.... Loads of wine and heaven knows how many calories... Lol

I had my sleeve on July 23rd, so started my diet on 12th. I am in UK and they don't seem to use liquid diet here pre op. I had to go on a very strict limited calorie but balanced diet. But was still very tough. There were a few times I could have blown it, but as I was paying myself for op just couldn't afford the thought they wouldn't do the op for me if my liver wasn't shrunk enough. It was that thought that kept me strictly on the path and on the diet!!

Keep at it and keep strong.... It's worth it. I have lost 23lb since July 12th, and for the first time in my life I don't crave food or feel hungry.... It hs the first time I can honestly say food doesn't control me.... I keep thinking I am going to wake up tomorrow morning and be starving hungry again , but it just doesn't happen.

Good luck with the diet and the op... It was no where near as bad as I was expecting, keep us informed of your progress

Hi, I can relate. I started my liquid diet yesterday, and I'm already feeling deprived. And I have a bad headache. For me, the hunger is worst at ***ht. On here, I've read others comments, saying how we should be glad we can drink things down with now trouble. Because after surgery, even that will be hard for awhile. So I am trying to keep that in mind.

Are you on restricted calories too? I can only have 800 cal. a day. Three protien drinks, some V8, and a cup of non fat pudding. My surgery is on Aug. 15. When is yours?

Thank you so much for your feedback. I am so glad to know I am not alone. Day 1 and its been hard, I have a headache and an empty stomach, but you are right, it will all be worth it.

My surgery is the 15th too!. Where are you located? I too have a headache, but I think it will get better each day. We need to keep in touch since were on the same schedule. I am in Charlotte NC. Hang in! Dawn
