My date is 3/6
I am on day 3 of my all liquid per opt diet. Day one and two were hard but today was just bad. I cried at least 3 times today I think I hit the wall everyone was telling me about. I am trying some hard to follow Dr Cahill’s order I just want something. My stomach hurts and my body just feels uncomfortable. I just need something to make it till Friday.  Is there anyone with advice for me.

I once did a week long apple juice colon clease thing (it was horrible)  So i definetly know what you are going throgh not being able to eat.  I can tell you that what helped me through it was drinking tons of water!  I am not sure if you can drink the protein or the meal replacement shakes but if you can then try that!  If that dosn't help then I would call your doctor and see if you might be able to have some crackers or something.  Keep strong girl, you are almost there! Just a few more days!!!

Hi! I did the liquid diet as well but mine was much worse than yours to deal with. I started the protein shakes from Medifast on January 20th!!! I go into surgery tomorrow. I had a lil over 1 month and 1 week of nothing but 5 100 calorie 8oz protein shakes a day. I could also have water and hot tea or coffee no sugar and just a lil bit of skim milk. Just think if I can do it for that long you can hang in a couple more days.......

My surgery date is 3/6/9 also   I've been on the pre-op diet since 16 January...2-3 protein drinks (EAS AdvantEDGE Carb Control) a day plus one small meal of 1oz chicken, fish or turkey and 2oz veggies plus lots of water. Today I've had jello and broth so I feel like I've cheated almost LOL! I also just drank the grape flavored magnesium citrate which is not enhanced much by the grape flavoring LOL!
Good luck tomorrow!
