Pre op liquid diet day three Lord help me I'd trade my pinky finger for food!



Recommended Posts

Mine and most do it to shrink the liver to aid in the process of lifting the liver during the surgery to get to the stomach better. I know from past health issues I have a fatty liver so as much as I complain I'm glad to be doing this, it's my detox. That being said each surgeon is different some don't see a difference in the time on the liquid diet, some do. I know the day before surgery I go from liquids to just Clear Liquids and then have to do my bowel prep. Which is the cherry on this hell cupcake! Ha ha ha

Not the pinky! It's a very underrated appendage. ????

Hang in there! You can do this!

Hang in there! It's hard but after surgery the same thing is necessary for safety - do this well and you'll know you can do that. Hang in!!!

I was the same way. Cried a lot because I was so hungry. But i stuck to it and my surgeon told me after my sleeve (Jan 13) that he could really tell that I didn't cheat and that it made everything so much easier for him. So that made it worth it.
