The first 2-3 days are not much fun but I did not think they were horrible. The last 4 days have been good and only a few cravings for me. I was running to the bathroom the first 3 days then things leveled out but today I'm headed toward plug land and started a stool softener. Don't be afraid. Keep yourself busy and pay attention to your body. My biggest help has been fruit infused Water. I put fresh fruit and ice and water in a shaker bottle. It tastes good and is refreshing and it helped with cravings:)

I am on day 4 of the pre-op diet and I cant stay out of the bathroom. Yesterday, 7x. I'm stunned. I did have a Soup that had 10g of Fiber so maybe that's why. I also eat a small salad each day. I love the FitFrappes from Big Train. The vanilla tastes exactly like the vanilla bean frap from starbucks.
