Congrats on making the decision to sleeve! I to have the same surgery date of 4/15, and like you I have to be on the two week liquid diet to. I guess because it will shrink my liver.

Day 2 was CRAZY for me, I was so hungry! but day 3 was way better. Im on day 7 now and just putting my head down and pushing forward. No I'm never fully satisfied with the shakes, but I know I can do this. Like someone else said on here, pressing on to keep my eye on the prize!

I find that sugar free popsicles really help and if you eat a cup of jellow before a shake, that helps me to feel more satisfied. Anyway good luck!

Good luck to you too, Shawn!

Day 5 now and things are going pretty well. I usually end up eating my meal around 6 which had helped me out a lot. Upset a little bc Premier Protein is the shake I like the best and can't find more anywhere!!! I've been to all the stores I recently shopped at grabbing things to prepare and none of them have any. It's really quite odd. I know it was only one place and maybe someone came in and bought all that was on the shelf since I last went. So I'm choking down the other brands I bought to get by. Tried a different frozen dinner last night and it was pretty good. Had my salad with it and felt satisfied. Three more days of this diet and then I start my last 48 hours of liquid only. We'll see how that goes.

I went to the grocery store last night bc I still need to feed my son. I was happy to see how Id look at stuff and something's would make me say "ohh that sounds good" but nothing made me really hungry or slip up. Really pleased with that.

Over all I'm not really hungry anymore I do just miss eating food all day long. I've been chewing sugar free gum to satisfy that chew need.

We are getting closer ladies!! Those of us with 4.15 dates a week from now we'll be a day post-op!!!!

...and I can almost not wait until 4/16 gets here. We'll be fine.

My liquid diet will be 3 weeks starting 4/24. Tomorrow I will substitute one meal for a Protein Shake. Next week two meals. I have cut out soda and sweets.... hopefully I won't go through to much withdrawal.

I cut out sugary foods simple carbs and caffeine and I didn't have a headache or go through withdrawals thank god but my daughter on the other hand continued having her Starbucks right up until the day before and she paid royally with nasty caffeine withdrawal. Good job on stopping those things in advance I think it makes a world if a difference in terms of withdrawal symptoms at least for me it did anyway.
