sheilaMc 40 Posted October 29, 2017 Ugh, I know it sucks. Mine starts next week and it sounds awful. Can you have any sugar free Jello or sugar free popsicles/water ice? Maybe that can help. It's definitely not easy, everyone says it's one of the difficult parts. But every day down you're THAT much closer to your surgery day! You can do this!!!! Sending you all the good vibes and positivity! I start my pre op Diet next week too! We can do this !!! 1 CamillaCallie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BabyFat23 209 Posted October 29, 2017 @CamillaCalliei only loss that much cause I wasn't eating the first week I couldn't get it down. I was like starving myself my head wouldn't stop hurting. Last week was ok for me I am about to drink 3 chocolate shakes a day. I always get my Water in. 2 weeks down one to go.🤗 2 ReneeShante and CamillaCallie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sue Sayers 26 Posted October 29, 2017 I start my liquid diet on 1st November. I go through stages of excited to start / can't wait, through to 'this is going to be so hard' and everything else in between. This is getting real now! This last week I feel as though every day has been like the last meal, I have said farewell to red wine with a toast, a final salute to chicken kiev and mashed potato and a "get out of my pantry'' to any other demons that may be lurking there. Yep, I think I'm good to go now, bring on 15th November! 2 BabyFat23 and CamillaCallie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I keep hearing it gets easier as the days go by. I'm allowed hard boiled egg whites and I think that helps a bit. Though my surgeon didn't give me a limit, I allow myself 3 egg whites a day. I haven't worked out while on this diet though I feel like it will make me more hungry. Any thoughts? *Nov 9 Surgery Date* I started my pre op diet today. They have us going 10 days (7 day solids, 3 day full liquids) Only thing I've been feeling is a little bit shaky, but I get some Protein in me and I'm fine. Surgery date is Nov 8th. 10 more days!!!!
