Alright ladies and gents- I start my 7 day full liquid diet next week. So I'm going this weekend to get everything I need to carry me through the pre op full liquid to the post op full liquid, including the clear liquids in between. (I'll be doing 7 day full -> 1 day clear-> SURGERY -> 4-6 day clear ->4-6day full -> 4-6 day soft to pureed) Anways, I've already compiled a shopping list. Does anyone have anything to add? I'm a vegetarian, mostly vegan- no animals or eggs. I will do milk products right now.  Clear Liquid Isopure Zero Carb SF ice pops  SF vegan Jello Vegetable broth Tons of smar****er or propel Full Liquid BSN Syntha 6 protein shake mix (my favorite- yummy. I hope I still like it post op!) SF yogurt Diet v8- fruit flavored  Soymilk 97-98% fat free Cream Soups (I'll strain them) SF Puddling Mix (I already have Micellar Milk to mix it with) Also- any ideas of ways to keep yourself distracted during this period? Where I work there is always food literally right behind me (currently there is a huge plate of holiday cookies, kettle cooked popcorn, a bunch of different candy, chocolate dipped pretzels, etc). Reps bring them in, especially during the holidays. The only thing I've thought of so far is to go for a walk, and drink a protein shake or something). Ideas? Thanks for all your help!

SlimFast Optima!  SF Jello.....

Hmmm as for keeping yourself distracted listen to music or something, Always have water to drink it will help curve your appetite... Keep your eye on the prize!

i agree with SheShe....keep your eye on the prize...music, walking, and asking for extra work may help you stay distracted...i'm not going to lie its going to be hard but when you think about the reward at the end it is so worth it.

The Liquid diet was by far the hardest thing in this journey for me.  I wanted to die or eat the whole world.  Either one looked good :-P

Haha- not scared. I know it will be sucky, especially since it's through Christmas. But it will be kinda nice to detox and hopefully drop a few pounds in there. I'm actually working Christmas so that will help/

I don't know if you have tried the isopure but it tastes pretty bad, i thought so anyway, so my nutritionist told me to make popsicles out of it. .tastes much better that way. She also told me told me to boil varous fruits and just drink the juice from it. .I also made popsicles out of that. .hope that adds some variety for you
