I don't have to do a liquid diet but decided to since I did one for my lap band. I am doing a week long liquid diet. I am halfway through day one and I feel like I am starving to death... hopefully it won't be so bad after surgery but I am also doing this to prove my commitment to myself. This sucks. ..

I also haven't been put on any type of liquid diet or anything as of yet i go for my preop appt on 4/9 and was thinking maybe then he would....i was gonna start today and go back to doing 2 shakes and small meal and cut the carbs back out because i heard its good to lose some weight before because it will shrink your liver which is good for surgery.....did your dr say anything about shrinking your liver? Unfortunately because of being so sick the ER dr told me to eat toast and milk today so i haven't started my shakes yet

I had to meet a weight loss goal before being approved for surgery...and that was supposed to be to shrink the liver. Beyond that I have to do liquid diet starting 2 days before surgery (clear liquids on the second day)

I have not been given any instructions on an intestinal/colon cleanse of any kind. Not sure if I should do that..if so I'll have to reconsider working the day before. Lol.

Yeah I'm on a 2 week liver shrink diet. It's basically shakes for Breakfast and lunch, then lean Protein and veggies for dinner. Less than 30 carbs a day, less than 10 fat grams a day and no more than 900 calories.

      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.
