I think I can I think I can I think I can[/quote'] 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billyvmom 128 Posted August 21, 2012 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. 1 Queengamez reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
melmo 0 Posted August 21, 2012 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! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
