So, those of you who were going through the pre-op liquid diet a few weeks ago: how are you doing now? I've just started and the first day wasn't bad. I'm sure it will get harder during this 2 weeks, though. What do you think? Did it get easier or harder as you went along during pre-op? How about after? Easier or harder than pre-op?

I did a 20 cleanse at one time. Nothing but a homemade lemon aid and salt Water flush in the morning

I never did find out it this is actually true. But it helped me then and I'm going to resort back to it when I start my 14 day pre-op liquid diet

Mental Hunger only last 7 seconds. So don't dwell on how hungry you are try thinking of something else

The first three days will be hell headaches but then it's smooth sailing.

Hope it helps.

I thought it got easier as the dys passed. The first couple were hard. After surgery I was only on liquids for a week. Every week after mt doctor took me to another stage because I was doing so good. I haven't had any problems. Good luck!

I'm 7 days post op as of today. The pre liquid diet got much easier as time went by the post op diet is way better I'm not hungry at all but very thirsty so drinking my fluids isn't a hardship. I am concerned about not having a bowel movement in almost 2 weeks. The good news is I have had nausea only once right after my surgery. I hope all goes well for you good luck.

      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.
