day 2 of preop liquid diet and I messed up!

[Savagegirl 97]

Every pre-op diet is so different. Mine is 10 days and I'm allowed 3 Protein Drinks, 2 cups broth, 1 cup thicker Soup like Tomato, 1 nf yogurt and 1 oatmeal packet per day plus clear fluids. I've lost 10-12 pounds in 8 days and do feel hungry and light headed but shrinking my liver is worth it.

Its not about the weight loss during this liquid diet phase, its about shrinking your liver so the surgeon has easier access to your stomach. If it has not shrunk, they may get in there and not be able to do surgery, so I have been told.

I'm aware but what cause the liver to shrink weight loss or not eating solid foods is what's confusing me but I'm back on track.

The liver shrinks from low carb food. It depletes the glycogen stored in your liver.

I too am on day 2 of the 2 week liquid diet. I don't have any helpful hints, but I'm here if you need any support. I have a menu that I'm following and it seems to help me keep to the strict diet.

I had to do a 2 week diet and I surprised the [emoji90] out of myself and didn't cheat. Don't get me wrong it was hard especially when my family was in the next room eating pizza. But I used the Premier Protein shakes and the Syntrax Nectar shakes (peach and grape are my faves) and drank lots of broth. I put lemon pepper in the chicken and Italian seasoning in the beef. Had lots of sugar free Jello too. Just stick with it. It will go faster than you think. I cried the day before thinking I couldn't do it and I did. You got this!!! This is just a small snapshot in the larger picture.

Premier Protein Shakes 3 times daily and an 8 oz glass of fat free milk at lunch and dinner. I can also have sugar free Jello, popsicles, low sodium and low fat broth.
I'm hungry all day so I can do a 4th shake until day 4. They said it gets easier by then.
