laurenelizabeth 13 Posted December 13, 2014 Hey! I'm Lauren! Just one week out from surgery! I'm super nervous and excited! And overall just ready! I'm currently struggling through the pre-op fast. I know this will all be worth it! Any tips (for hair, skin...all that jazz) and recipes would be super welcomed! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sweetgagrl00 39 Posted December 14, 2014 I start my 2 week liquid diet on January 1. What has been the toughest part for you and how do you work through it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ai1992 53 Posted December 14, 2014 The first day is the absolute worst, second gets a bit better, and by the third day the hunger just goes away. Just remember it'll all be worth it. Once you get past the first day it gets much easier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
laurenelizabeth 13 Posted December 14, 2014 Drink lots of water! I'm allowed to have SF Jello and poweraid, and broth. Doctor said if I absolutely NEED it, I can have an EAS Protein Shake but I need to try to avoid them. Soooo, whenever I'm hungry, I'll eat some jello, or have broth or poweraid and drink Water till I'm full! I find that the days I don't drink enough water are the days I struggle the most.

Chele H 427 Posted December 14, 2014 Vitamin Water Zero helped me tremendously during the liquid diet...kept my electrolytes balanced and helped with the headaches and weak feeling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
