 I started my pre-op liquids today.  Any tips or words of encouragement?  I am feeling very hungry.  Can I expect that hunger feeling to go away at some point?  Today I've had

4 carnation instant breakfast with milk (also with powdered milk mixed in)
3 slim fast
1.5 propel
1 fruit2O
2 cups of vegetable broth

So hungry.

Hi,

When I was on the liquid diet you were also allowed to have SF pudding and SF jello.  That really does help with the hunger cravings.  I wasn't limited on how many protein shakes I could have either.  If you can have more or the pudding and jello give that a try.

Have a Merry Christmas

you are gonna be hungry...try not to think about food or be around it or around people who are eating....keep yourself busy doing things....and if your on full liqui diet you can have cream of wheat and yogurt and creamed soups as well......

i was doing so bad on liquids i had to finally tell myself if i cheat on this liquid diet one more time im not gonna get the surgery...because i kept cheating that meant i wasnt ready to  make the dietary changes i would need to after surgery...so far it has worked...and after 3 days the hunger goes away :) hope that helped

My life is like McDonalds....I'm Lovin It
