second week of two week fast
My surgeon also did not require a two week liquid diet. The day before we did a bowel prep and clear liquid only. I think that would have been tough before the surgery. After the surgery the week of clear liquid was easy because I was never hungry. You may get more responses (help) from the volume of people on the main board.

I had to do a 2 week liquid diet prior to my surgery also, I had mine on Sept 10th. I'm in phase 2 of recovery and can have semi-solids now. I found that having broth and sugar free hot cocoa helped me get through the 2 week liquid phase. As long as it was something hot and I could sip it, I was ok. But yes, it does suck being on it, but try to remember the payoff in the end! Try and incorporate protein powder into your shakes, that may be why you feel weak
