Clear liquid diet

My god, I am starving...I've had broth, gatorade & jello....help!

Sorry your so hungry.  WE all sympathize with you.  Something that is in our own best interest as hard as it is.  Keep yourself busy.  I went to work the day before my surgery..figuring the day would pass faster. Add in some sugarfree popsicles or Sobe 0..try and fool yourself..(I know, but give it a try)  And best of luck.  Take a long bath if you can, won't be able to do that for a while.

I've been on liquids for 7 days and I feel your pain.  Sugar free popcycles have been my saving grace, as well as homemade chicken broth.  Crystal Lite always tastes sweet and is very satisfying to me also. 

I'm also doing protein drinks, so that helps too.

Take care and the best of luck on your surgery !

I am on clear liquids today too....surgery tomorrow and I"m so ready. I'm sure when the pain hits after surgery I won't be so excited but right now I just  want to move forward.
I'm unable to picture myself actually losing weight for some reason. Not that I doubt that I will lose, or that I question my ability to do the necessary diet and exercise- I just can't "picture" myself thinner. Anyone else out there feel like that?
Heiti

Good luck with your surgery today!!  I am thinking of you. 

I know exactly how you feel when you said you cant picture yourself thinner!  I am with ya!    I have been heavy for so long that I cant imagine what type of figure I will have when I am thinner, its a scary thing!

i have never been thin, so i know what you mean when you say u cant picture urself thin.... I have been thinking the same thing... what will i look like? will i like what i will look like? will my husband look at me differently??  it will be a different person in the mirror!

Just knowing your surgery is tomorrow should help.  don't forget, nothing red. 

Try to drink an Isopure from GNC. It is a clear protein drink. That did the job for me! Goodluck!

LOL  I am laughing reading everyone's posts b/c it's so nice to see that there is someone else in the world going through what I am!  UGH!  It's miserable!  Ive been on liquid diet since 4/7... Surgery is on 4/21. 

I have found that if I "eat" every 2 hours - and drink my waters in between; Im ok.  If I get off track, Im the devil.  I have an assortment of sugarfree gum... and I never thought chicken broth would be so yummy after a day of protein shakes and sf applesauce.  :P

You can do it!  You ARE doing it!  :)

I see that your surgery was scheduled for today.  I hope that everything went well!
