I also found that staying full on the pre-op diet was a challenge.  But on the plus side, I lost about 5 pounds during the week I was on it.  I weighed this morning (done eating - surgery later today).

That's great! The 5 lbs, not the challenge part...

 

I've been on it a week as of yesterday, have this week thru Tuesday next week with all clear liquids Wednesday, surgery Thursday. I'm hoping to lose 10 lbs overall... Have lost five so far too... Well, before Wes Craven showed up with the customary **bloat** he likes to trigger. Now I'm not sure how much I'm losing.

Way to mix it up!  I start my pre-op diet tomorrow.  Sadly, SF pudding and jello are not allowed for me on it, so I'll just have to throw back the protein shakes as they are.

Oh no! Why no SF JELLO?

Granted, I say this as someone who hates jello generally, but it's been saving me.

What is your pre-op diet like? Good luck with it!

I'm not sure why no jello, but the diet is 3 shakes and a lean cuisine

Great Googly Moogly. You definitely win the crappiest Pre-Op award(which I just made up.).

Having your one tiny meal be a Lean Cuisine is like making you eat microwaved punishment...

I know, I HATE lean cuisines.  But at least its not 100% liquid.

True.

Maybe it'll even taste good by virtue of being the only food you got...

(you poor thing.)

Stick to your guns! I'll be rooting for you. :)
