I am on day 5 of pre-op and it really does get better - the first three days are the worst - the sf popsicles and broth were my saving graces. you will do great

It truly does get easier! After the third day and a whopper of a headache the rest was uphill. Good luck! You can do this!!!!

Hang in there. I was a basket case for the first five or six days as I was detoxing and in sugar withdrawal, but it got easier after that.

I'm with you! I started my pre-op liquid diet today too. It's now 6:30p.m. and getting pretty hungry. I'll be going to bed very early tonight. I hope everyone has a better day of it Tuesday.

The first 5 days for me were the worst. I was hungry and my stomach was doing "whale songs" constantly. But after day 5 it was like a miracle happened and I haven't been hungry since. I am, however, incredibly tired of tasting these same shakes day in/day out, and I would like to have something to CHEW on. Gum has helped a lot with that!

Good luck on yours. Many folks say it's the hardest part because post-op, you have little interest in eating at all

Yes headaches for the first 2 days of liquid diet . On day 4 def. alot better now not really hungry but i too have the whale sounds in my stomache . Sleeve schedualed for May 1st cant wait. Prayers for me please so nervous

I think it's different for everyone after surgery I was still hungry and grumpy it lasted a while until they bring you your tray with broth, tea, diet juice. You'll be thankful for anything and be shocked how little you can eat. Good luck

I started the preop diet today too. I only have to do it for four days. My surgery is Friday. My tummy is grumbling and I too am going to bed early. We can do this!
