Day 2 of my preop diet and I'm fighting the snacking urge something terrible. I haven't had anything sweet for a while but I want it now!
But I wont. I thing I will go to bed and it will pass by morning.

go out now and get your self some sugar free popsicles. They really are quite sweet! Also get some Crystal LIght. Good Luck, you can do it!

The first 3-4 days of the preop diet can be so, so difficult.  Good for you for hanging in there!

FWIW, sugar-free popsicles and sugar-free strawberry Jello were preop diet savers for me.  Another great motivator was that I really, really wanted to shrink and calm my liver by adhering to my preop diet to make things easier for my surgeon (and myself) when I was on the table in the OR.

I made a trip to the store today and got SF pudding, jello and Popsicles. 

Today has been hard too. I made northern bean soup so I had those for dinner and a salad for a snack. I hope after the first 3-4 days it will get a little better. 

I stopped and got my girls pizza today. I drank my protein shake and smelled the pizza. That was hard. But I did it.
