monopoly2015 27 Posted January 2, 2015 Oh ok. I can't have any caffeine. And no meals either. 21 days of horribleness but it will be worth it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sleevydreams 48 Posted January 2, 2015 @@monopoly2015 I can't have meals either really, except I guess I do count my broth & cottage cheese as a meal. I save that up all day & have it for my dinner. I thought if I gave myself something to look forward to I would be less likely to feel so deprived on straight liquids all day. I have a friend that's having her surgery the 6th with a different Dr than me & she can have a lean meat & salad for dinner. Its weird how different drs have different guidelines. I'm scared to cheat though. I'm afraid it will somehow cause me problems during or after surgery, or that when he gets in there he'll be able to tell lol. @@losing.it.lulu I feel the same way. I think my body has just gave up at this point on ever seeing solids again. I told hubby tonight that I think my stomach feels like it would reject anything solid if I even tried lol.

sleevydreams 48 Posted January 2, 2015 I'm on day 6 of 10. I'm down 6 pounds since I started the actual liquid diet Sunday. I started a doing 2 shakes & a lean meal 12/4 when I found out for sure that I would get to have surgery January 7th & all together I'm down 12 pounds from that. Today has been my easiest day yet on the liquid diet. People at work have tried so hard not to even talk about food this week, lol, but I told them today I'm pretty much over it now. Its almost like a new habit to me now lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crystalmaries 55 Posted January 3, 2015 Jan 13th is my surgery date. Day 2. It's tough. Cottage cheese would be awesome but not on my dr's diet plan. Protein Drinks 3 times a day, Apple sauce, sf Jello, sf pudding, yogurt are the things I've had so far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
