My 2 week liquid diet begins tomorrow..anyone else?
I started full liquids on Sunday and in 5 days I have not really been hungry .
The first day I couldn't believe I only had 750 calories and I felt great. Just be sure to eat a variety of flavors and textures if allowed. I used New Whey liquid protein which is just 3 ounces and you get 42 grams of protein. If you feel hungry try drinking water. It works. My surgery is Monday. Getting excited. Best of luck to you.

Surgery date: 3/21... I am on day three of the liquid diet. It is really not as bad as I thought it would be! The boths make a big difference for lunch and dinner... seems like I am actually getting a meal. I am so fortunate that my husband is doing it with me. It would be diffucult to have him eating a regular dinner. I think the best thing we did was prepare! We got rid of all the food int he pantry and fridge and stocked up on the items on the diet plan.
I am on day 4 of the liquid diet...and down 6 lbs already and proud of that.
The only issue I have had is low blood sugar being diabetic on insulin...my doctor told me how to adjust the insulin so doing that.
I bought broth today...that is great your DH is doing it with you. My DH is not but he is taking care of himself and my DD Aviva...so not so bad. I just have a slight headache but dealing with that.
Hugs,
