^{so i am cheating right now! i am on day 7 of my liquid diet, but i really wanted a chicken Soup from this resaurant. i am only eating the soup part, i did crumble in one cracker. is that horrible? i know i should be doing good, i passed my first weekend and it was hard to be around people. one more weekend to go, i dont think i will be able to go to a birthday luncheon though, that will kill me! can someone please tell me if i am going to blow it by eating this soup?? i have been good about protien shakes and Jello, pudding, posicles. just this soup thing, i crave agood soup.......}

I am so glad this is posted!!! I am on DAY 1 and oh it is tough...I know the outcome is what I am looking at...Glad to hear that as the days go by it gets easier easier...I also try and think there are a lot of people out there that feel like I do right now...but don't have the means to get it...I am blessed...but realize the things we take for granted...so I will not complain...

I am on my first day. I am not hunger but the taste of a salad was awesome. I am in the parking lot at the supermarket on my 2nd Popsicle !!

[Milbedil 31]

I agree that it is not that I am hungry...as the saying goes..."you always want something you can't have" lol...

I look at it as a big mind game I plan to win!

[Mslnzee2010 83]

I need to get more stuff here I don't have any SF Jello or pudding I forgot about that I'm going out to get some tomorrow

i see that alot of nut's have diferent ideas about the liquid diet! i see some people can have salad. i want a salad so bad......... but i was told my a friend who did this to NOT eat anything at all, just drink the liquids and clear stuff like SF Jello, pudding, posicles, fudgesicles. yes they taste great and i cant get enough sometimes of the jello/popsicles. but i could really go for a salad at lunch or dinner. i put a call into my nut. but haven't hear back yet. so wanting to eat lettuce and tomatoes, cucumber, celery, and maybe even make myself a juice in the juicer!

any thoughts?

congrats to all you who started the liquids this week. let me tell you, i didn't think i could do it myself! but i have been strong, dont think about food, stay away from the TV! watch movies only. think about how much less you really need to feel satisfied, i honestly didnt' think a shake would fill me, but it has so far. i eat jello in the am, have a small juice, then my shake. its lunch that gets me! and its hard at work smelling the toasted bread! but we can do this! a small price to pay for a lifetime of skinny!!

Started my 2week pre-op today too. Not too bad, getting ready to have some SF pudding so belly won't growl and keep me awake

My NUT told me adding fruit to the Protein shakes is fine as long as it is well blended. I can also have low fat creamy Soups...cream of potato, shrimp, chicken, ect...just have to blend any chunks up very well.

I am adding unjury unflavored Protein powder to everything, which is helping me keep from getting too hungry. I found that 1/2 serving of the Unjury with 32oz Water with Tangerine/orange MIO flavoring to sip all day does wonders and tastes delish Had 64oz worth of that today.

I know how you feel, I was so weak yesterday I thought I was gonna pass out. I'm waiting for replies to your question too. I made some homemade broth today, so I feel a lil better. When is your date for surgery?

My doctor allows 1 salad with veggies and Protein (lean grilled chicken) with low cal dressing...just found this out! so I have that once a day...it helps...ask your doctor about it
