I'm in the middle of day 2 and I'm feeling a little icky but mostly it's the stomach growling that's getting to me.

 I hear it gets better after day 3-4, but we'll see. I've also heard that days 2, 3, and 4 were really hard but maybe it just hasn't hit me yet lol

I'm drinking 20 oz of water between each shake, and when I start getting the hunger pangs I guzzle more water, it usually makes it subside for a little while or at least until it's time to drink another shake.

Are you walking or exercising to keep your mind busy? I honestly don't know if I would have the strength, but I've been told to stay busy.

We had a taste test at my clinic and I had some and it was pretty good.

I'm definitely going to have to try it because as much as I craved sweets a couple of months ago, you'd never know it by how much they're annoying me in the form of shakes now!

I will start my pre-op diet on October 6th.  I don't have specifics yet, but I believe it is low carb, but not necessarily all liquid.  I'll find out on October 1st.  Thanks for starting this group!

Welcome Sooz319!

As you start your pre-op I will be having surgery.  You are so luck if your diet is low carb. I can eat soup, but I know that I'm going to want food. For the first time ever, I'm dreaded Friday!
