14 days to go.pre-op liq diet started today

Hello Everyone, I started the liquid diet today and I just don't know how i'm going to do this for 2wks.Any suggestion to make this successful? Teona

You're going to do fine.... It gets easier after the first couple of days. If I was hungry I would drink chicken broth and have sugarfree jello. I was allowed to have fruit or low fat yogurt as well, anything as long as it was low cal and low/non fat ( but only if I was starving). Diet was not neccessarily to lose weight, but to reduce fat on the liver. Anyway..... I know you'll do just great !

Thank you so much, I really needed that. Teona

Teona, I feel for ya! The liquid diet is hard but it does get easier as time goes on. I had mine over Christmas and New Years so that doubly difficult! Do eat jello and popsicles. They add a sweet flavor and give you something different. I ate so many of them we should probably buy stock in them . Hang in there though...you can do this! Tina

Teona, I feel for you hon. I have not been instructed to go on a liquid diet but am going to start mine on Monday. I want to be absolutely certain he can do it lap. Think of it this way. Only 2 weeks and you will be on your way to a thinner healthier you.....woooooooot!!! Anna

I am right there with you! My surgery is on the 17th of January and I started my diet on the 1st. Good Luck!

Jello is the answer and broth....I think Now we are allowed 3 protein shakes and clear liquids... BTW, WALMART has sugar free Jello for 35 cents here! Whooohooo...I can stock up.. I am not there yet, but going to start on the 15th, so I am gonna prepare my food every evening, make jello and broth to take with to work and my protein shake...that is the key I think to have stuff available, when you need it...but that's easy for me to say, I am not on it yet....see it as a means to the end Good luck Gina
