stacechase 251 Posted August 12, 2013 You can do it! My surgery is on August 19th also. Today is Day 5 of my all-liquid, Optifast diet. It does get easier after the first 3 days. Incorporate some exercise in as well if you can, like long walks...I've found that it curbs my appetite. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
