Hang in there! I got lucky...my Dr. only requires liquid for the day before surgery.

just finished my 3rd day of the liquid diet and I gotta admit I don't think it's completely horrible, I think it's because you know it's for a set amount of time and I'm so excited about my surgery. I started mine 2 days early...my surgery is two weeks from today. you're gonna do fine. good luck.

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. Dotti

I just wanted to wish you good luck. I started my liquid diet today. When I am not at home its not an issue at all, but my family is cooking around me and my tummy is starting to yell at me! You will do great!

Thanks everyone for the support...today was not so bad since I was not home much..I do have a bit of a headache...but not thinking about it. Hoping the next 2 weeks go nice and easy. I told my DH he is responsible for his meals now. And I will take care of our DD meals. Hugs, Dori

Lap Band on 03/21/08 with
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, Dori
