I probably did fully a week on it I found it so difficult and cheated so much ridecously I was so scared when I went into surgery they wouldn't continue with it maybe because I'm only 18 my liver wasn't to bad and they where able but I don't know if my bad eating was the reason I had a bleed and almost died but that's a risk you take good luck with it all :)

Full liquids for two weeks... Day one no cheating but lots of snapping at people and actually trying to use the force on my husband to keep his mouth closed. Yoda I am not so I just started yelling and then hid in the bathroom till my fit was over.

I am on day 6. And I can say it does get slightly easier. I feel more emotionally in control than I did the first few days. I have been tempted to cheat but I haven't. I just keep reminding myself that I want a small shrunken liver. LOL We can do this!

Hang in there! I start my low cal, low carb, low sugar liquid diet on Wednesday! Thankfully, it's only for one week and there is a light at the end of the tunnel (hopefully, it's not a train!).

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
