Day 7 of the liquid diet. I started a couple of days early because I was off work and thought it would be better to start while I was at home. I really want to chew something! The plus side is I have lost 9.5 pounds!! Today I bought some really great Protein Drinks at costco. They taste good and they have 30 grams of Protein each.

Don't beat yourself up! If we could all stay on diets 100%, we wouldn't need this surgery. Tomorrow is a new day. Get refocused & Thursday will be here before we know it.

I had some broth today, and man was it good!! I think i will be OK. For Now at least.. my next problem is I'm feeling constipated, and debating whether to take a laxativ or not.

Try some psyllium Fiber (metamucil) instead, it helped me with Constipation during my 2 week preop diet.
