Liquid diet day #5
so... I haven't posted in quite awhile, but here I am, 9 days away from surgery. And this liquid diet is killing me. And I will be honest Ive cheated a little bit everyday nibbling on something but nothing major, just a cracker or 2. I just want something to chew! The good news is though, I've already lost 5lbs, yay me! I could use some inspiration and support to stick to this "shrink your fatty liver pre-op liquid diet thing."

I did the "all liquid" diet 2 weeks before and 2 weeks after surgery and only cheated once. I am a "cluck-cluck" chicken! Or maybe because my surgeon was so darn cute....he could tell me anything and I would oblige him. Anyway, I was too scared NOT to follow the liquid diet. The idea of my liver being to large for my surgeon to navigate safely through my insides was incentive enough for me.
I wish you the best....keep your eye on the prize. The end result...YOUR HEALTH!

Hang in there with the liquid diet. I know it can be tough. I was so happy that my doctor only required one day prior to surgery for the liquid diet. However, I fought the "liquid demon" for the next couple of weeks after surgery. I know you can do it.

I am right there with ya! I am on day 7 of my liquid diet. Fortunately, my doctor allows us to do one sensible meal a day with our liquids, so that has helped take the edge off. My surgery is Tuesday!!! Im getting really nervous and a bit freaked out. But I am excited for all the positive changes to start happening. Keep me in your thoughts on tuesday cause I sure will need it!
