Liquids day 1 sucks

[Kelsnikol 63]

Well its almost over and all I wanna do is go to sleep and forget about it. Only 13 more to go hopefully tomorrow will be easier and the clinic I work with had a dinner today.of course in the breakroom that I couldnt eat. I think the smells are.what really made me hungry...eye on the prize

I give respect to any and all that do a pre surgery liquid diet. I was one of the lucky ones that didnt have to do one.

Hang in there.

I didn't have to do one either. And trust, if you can't handle liquids now you should probably reconsider this whole thing because you're going to be the mayor of liquid city for the next month. And it sucks every single day.

I can't imagine having a dinner at work during the pre-op! My advice for the remainder of the pre-op is to stay busy! It's not easy but does get easier after the 3rd day (and, yes, I thought people were not being exactly honest about that when I was on my 2 week pre-op...but it was true!)

Good luck...you got this!

It gets better I promise!! I'm on day 6 of my 2 week pre-op diet and the first 3 days were rough!! By day 4 I wasn't starving anymore!! Good luck!!!

Oh ya day 1 is always the hardest I know but I dont think there is anyone that can honestly say their ready for 14 days with no food with a regular stomach...im doing.it, so no reconsidering not is even in the thought. I figure I can cry baby the.first few days lol but that it.would be better.by day 3....thanks for the.encouragement.

I'm right there with ya girl! Today was my day 1 of liquid diet. Protein Shakes, broth, Jello, sugar-free popsicles, and Water. I did this once before for 4 days to see what it was like. The worst is the first 2 days. It's all about getting in tune with your mind and body. When I did it the first time it was really getting my head into this, my body adapted quickly and I was able to realize when I was and wasn't truly hungry. It was more my mind going "YOU CRAZY PSYCHO FEED ME!" lol Message me anytime

[Kelsnikol 63]

Lol thanks girl I will! My diet wont let me have broth! I wish it did a lil salt might help! I cant have Protein Drinks either just carnation sugar free.shakes Water 8oz skim milk a cup of.jello and 2 sf.popsicles a day! But day 1 is over and im alive. I say bring on day 2

[Kelsnikol 63]

Day 2 is definitely not as hard. Had a mean headache this morning and I dont drink pop so its not the caffeine. Moody yeah..but better

[Kelsnikol 63]

Halfway thru day 3 and yes I weighed myself :/ lol but ive already lost 6.lbs and I was wanting to lose 15. 11 more days to go!

[spunkyirishpunk 29]

Ohhhh that's great! I haven't weighed myself yet. Maybe i'll do that tomorrow

[Kelsnikol 63]

Yeah i totally feel like I shouldnt have but it gave me motivation to keep going... i wanna lose 9 more before surgery.

[cathycnyrs 85]

I start 14 days next Wednesday, can't wait... NOT! I told my co-workers to be prepared next week, it probably wasn't gonna be pretty. I'll probably be ill and snappy for a couple of days. Phase one to a new life...

[Kelsnikol 63]

I was hungry day one, crybaby day two, and i dont give a care day 3! Bring on day 4. Except I had a bad leg cramp this morning, stress and dieting causes me bad bad charlies horses! I can't take my Multi-Vitamin without food im one of those that will almost faint and puke my guts up if i do...so far not too bad though!

[Kelsnikol 63]

Day 4 equals nauseous...
