Of course you can. it's a means to an end. It's a week out of your life. You can do this!

[Sophie74656 1,572]

yes you can, keep telling yourself. Keep thinking about the end result and how healthy and beautiful you will be.

also, post op you won't feel much like eating anyway

It's one week. In the grand scheme of things, it's no time at all. It will be miserable, depending on your guidelines, but you can do it.

You can do it! Just think about the benefits of surgery and stay strong!

Thank yall! I'm only allowed stuff like G2 Gatorade, fat free broth, decaffeinated tea with splenda, Jello which I hate but I am sure I will love lol. Protein drinks and that is pretty much it... I keep telling myself I will get thru this!!!

[KristenLe 5,979]

How about sugar free popsicles?

[KristiW 1]

Yeah I can have those thank goodness lol

You can do it. Focus on what you CAN have instead of what you can't. You can do anything for a week!

My surgery is also on the May 10th and I'm having to do a 2 week liquid diet. One week down and one to go. It's hard but you can do it! It really does get easier after the first few days.

My surgery is the 10th as well. I'm more than one week in. I started the liquid diet early incase something happened.
