It does get easier! The first day was the hardest. I had a headache day 3-4 then it was smooth sailing from then on. I'm on day 10 now. 3 more days of liquid diet then my new life begins!

Yes horrible headache day 1 & Day 5 omg it was awful. I just took Vitamins, more Protein Drink, & Tylenol. I'm on Day 6 now, then Clears on Sunday. 2/6 Surgery in Mexico!

Emmy my surgery is 2/12. I started liquid diet this past Monday. Just stick with it! It will get better! I had a slight headache late on day 1 but since then I've been fine. Not hungry or anything. I have to make sure I am keeping busy though! And I make sure to avoid looking at, being around, smelling, touching food AT ALL! LOL! Good luck! :)

Started pre op diet today 12 days of liquids :P but I think this is the hardest part. Surgery will be on Feb 13 in Erie Pa. This is one journey that I am really looking forward too.

Feb 11th here! Have been on the liquid pre op diet since Monday. Slipped up today and ate pizza. :( I feel super crappy for cheating but I'm getting back to it and committing to the liquid once again! Never thought not chewing food would affect my mood as much as it has. It reminds me of when I quit smoking years ago. :-/

Keep at it, TP (hehe) and don't beat yourself up. I quit smoking years ago myself, and it was amazing how much I craved the physical sensations after quitting - holding it in my hand etc. This is the last unaided diet you'll ever have, and probably the hardest as we are all kind of a jumble of emotions right now.

      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.
