@@mom2madison Can you have Protein shakes? I know it's not real food but if you maybe blend it with ice and make it like a frozen drink (pretend frozen mudslide) it would help. Stay strong - you've got this!

I'm not sure what you are allowed, but I was allowed a daily cup of strained, low-fat cream Soup, like Healthy Choice. I don't normally eat this kind of Soup (and actually thought it sounded gross), but I found it helped me feel fuller, and the texture and warmth were helpful, too. Because I don't normally eat this kind of soup, it didn't trigger any cravings, like for Ritz crackers!

I can't even have veggies @@mom2madison I think it's because my surgery is the 15. Lemon Water has become my best friend.

AUGUST 15th? You can do this!! TWO DAYS and you'll be restarting your life, finding a whole new package for the you that lives inside! Keep drinking your no-calorie liquids. Have you tried the no-sugar, no-cal MiO drops to add to Water, or the "drink-sticks", so you get a variety of flavors? And don't forget the sugar free popsicles and sugar free jello! These were both allowed on my all-liquid diet and it sure felt good to have something to chew!!

Hang tough!! You can do this!!

Yeah I been having my Popsicle. I didn't even think of the mio mix. The only thing that sucks is limited energy with a two year old. We are staying home this weekend. I know I got this the light of the tunnel is almost here. Thanks for the suggestion. I forgot about those @leebick.

Well done !!!

I know it sucks, but it'll be a breeze once you are post-op.

The pre-op diet is all about you taking action to ensure your safety during the surgery. It's a great way to flex your willpower muscles. You can do it. Enjoy the amplified rate of weight loss you'll be seeing near the end of this 14 days. It's awesome.

Just wait.....those other muscles will be emerging in the months ahead as you burn off the unwanted fat.

It gets much, much easier. You are just having to do the hardest part now.....at the beginning.

Stick with it and have no regrets. You'll feel better on the day of your surgery, I promise. You'll bebop in there ready to rock 'n roll and be highly confident knowing the you've done your part.

Keep flexing those willpower muscles and profit from this.
