taracutch 226 Posted June 13, 2016 I'm on day one of my 14 day pre op liquid diet too. I'm dying of hunger [emoji22] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hazelzay 75 Posted June 13, 2016 It gets better with not being hungry but you will probably just think about food because you can't have it . Ugh it sucks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

taracutch 226 Posted June 13, 2016 I just found out this morning at my pre op visit. I thought since I'm one of his smallest patients, I would only have to do a week. This was unexpected. I would have pigged out yesterday [emoji35] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
reachbree 140 Posted June 13, 2016 You're so close!! I have some information that says I can choose between all liquid OR 2 liquids and 1 meal. A few days ago I tried starting the ALL liquid....didn't cut it for me so yesterday I had 2 liquid, then for dinner steamed broccoli and chicken breast. However, today and tomorrow I'm shooting for ALL liquids (Water and Protein shakes). I know it sounds funny but I just want my body to be in the best shape it can be in for this surgery (Thurs) which hopefully means my liver is shrinking!!. Good Luck to you and keep us posted!!

becomingmandikaye 262 Posted June 13, 2016 Hey there surgery buddy! Mine's on Wednesday too. I only had to do a week of an official pre-op diet, but I started cutting way back on calories and sugar on the 1st. I'm down 10 pounds since the first, so the misery has been worth it. Tomorrow, however, is the clear fluids only day. I am NOT looking forward to that! Especially since I didn't take the day off work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hazelzay 75 Posted June 13, 2016 I just found out this morning at my pre op visit. I thought since I'm one of his smallest patients, I would only have to do a week. This was unexpected. I would have pigged out yesterday I thought the same thing . Especially since everyone says I'm on the smaller spectrum of Bariatric patients . I didn't even have to do any type of dieting during my whole 6 months . I just find it weird that there are people that are 300 or 400 pounds and they do the two week liquid diet for their liver . I would just assume their livers would be bigger . It confuses me . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
taracutch 226 Posted June 15, 2016 I actually feel sorry for the bigger people. How in the heck are they supposed to survive on 800 calories a day? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

albare1978 22 Posted June 16, 2016 I'm on day 7. Once you get over day 3 it will be a breeze. I'm really not even hungry anymore. I've only lost 2 lbs on it which is very frustrating and disheartening. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
taracutch 226 Posted June 16, 2016 I'm on day 4 and haven't cheated at all... Not so much due to willpower as much as I want to make sure everything goes as smoothly as possible. I'm having a 3-part surgery: RNY, hernia repair and gallbladder removal. So I just don't want any complications. In a nutshell, I'm too scared to cheat.
