Clear liquids 2 days prior to operation

[Tada69 2]

Hi everyone ... my surgery is 3 days away...

tomorrow starts my clear liquid diet for 2 days. No Protein Shakes. No solid foods. Just Water, apple juice, broth, Jello. I’m so excited for the surgery, but scared of getting through the next 2 days.

Any advice?

Any experience with this? How hungry did you get?

Eyes on the prize! Remember this is temporary.

Lots of people have shared their liquid-only diet experiences here. When you need a boost, come back here & read how others have dealt with it.

Good luck! You are not alone.

It can go by fast. Do some things that you like to past the time and enjoy this time.
Sugar free ICE things are great.

My center wants me to continue with shakes until midnight the day before surgery. They recently changed the rules from the clear liquid diet.

I'm a wimp, but I took the day off work when I was on only clears and no shakes, but it was only one day. I found that the less I moved around the less calories I needed, and I felt better. I took naps. Drank clear veg broth. It went by fast, and I was less hungry than during the liver shrinking diet.

You can have clear Protein Drinks. I have a powder that mixes with Water and tastes much better than the Isopure clear or bottled clear Protein. Tuesday and today are Clear Liquids and in supposed to drink 3. Maaaay have cheated with wine as a clear liquid but not today cause anesthesia and all that
