ANYONE ELSE HAVING A HARD TIME DEALING W/THIS PRE LIQUID DIET?

I get to have cream soup and protein drinks,,,for another 6 days. Before the surgery on July 11th. Everyone says after the surgery its easy because you are not hungry. But now I am hungry and everywhere I go its about food! Geez,,,anyway just wanted to vent and see if anyone else was having a hard time w/this pre diet. I know there are dr^s out there that don't make there patients do it. Mine does, says it shrinks the liver. Personally I think they are If i liked dieting I wouldn't be fat right...hahah Just had to add that. Hope everyone is doing okay. Pam

that sucks, my dr's office, dosn't ask me to loose weight before surgery nothing to do before it which is fine with me, lol, good luck, I was going to try a protein diet before but I can't find one that I like

Hi, I started my liquid diet today - my surgery is the 13th. I can have sugar-free jello, pudding, yogurt and soup with no bits in them and lots of protien drinks. It's a pain, but I know I've got a fatty liver which is an added risk during surgery. Fatty livers are brittle, which isn't a good thing. So, even though it stinks, I'm doing it for my liver - I certainly don't want to be opened up during my lap RNY if possible. Amy

This has been a trying time for me as well. It is very hard but I thank the OH boards for helping me to stay on track (for the most part). Know that you are not alone in this pre-op liquid diet, so please join me at least for the next 7 days and make a commitment that we will do whatever it takes to stay the course. My surgery is on July 13th. Dee

I am not sure yet if I will my surgery is the 20th of this month and I need to go see my doctor this coming Monday. I sure hope not....I know how hard it was for me to quit soft drinks and cafeine! I am here if you need someone to talk to.
