I was hangriest the 2nd & 3rd day. Just keep drinking, it sucks but it helps. Good Luck. And it's totally worth it

I thought if a dr required liquid diet it would be a few days not two weeks. What's up with that??/

Many doctors require a liquid diet that includes Protein drinks for 1-2 weeks pre-op, then a clear liquid diet for 1-2 days pre-op.

It's day one for me and so far i'm not hungry. Just more nauseous because EVERYTHING is so sweet.

I'm on day 12 of 14. I think what helped me a ton was drinking a ton of Water (I add the crystal light lemonade packets). This really kept me "full". I'm down 14lbs which I think has helped motivate me! I'm hoping to hit the 15 pound mark (I had a weight stall when I hit 12 lbs for 2 days).

Well done everyone on your pre-ops!! Aside from the liver shrinkage, it's hard now to see how important the pre-op is psychologically, but you will once you're on the other side and look back on it!

So keep fighting the good fight! You're off to a fantastic start to your healthy lifestyle post-op!

I just finished day one of a 7 day pre op diet, and I have to say I'm worried! I did not tolerate the Protein Shakes well at all, felt sick all day. As soon as it would start to pass I would try to get some more in and it would start all over again! Anyone else having this type of issue? Does it subside? I'm determined to make this!

Try a different shake, have you try the Unjury one? Or I use the trader joe they come on a can and they are good with 35gr Protein.

I did pure liquids yesterday but for dinner I had the best grilled chicken salad I've had in a long time. It was from steak and shake.

I found that some shakes upset my stomach while others didn't. I would try another brand.
