Ymartell08 5 Posted July 22, 2014 I'm excited my surgery date is getting close. Not too happy with the 2 week liquid diet. I'm on day 2 of pre op liquid diet. Any suggestions on what to eat? 1 BeagleLover reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpecialNewMe 38 Posted July 22, 2014 Just keep counting the days down! I was on the pre-surgery liquid diet for two weeks also. I just wanted to chew something! if I got really hungry I just went to bed! LOL!!!!!!!!!! You will make it. It seems like it lasts forever but will be over before you know it. Before you know it you will be having that first scrambled egg when you are on soft food after surgery. It will be the best thing you ever tasted! You will do just great. 1 BeagleLover reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
