NEW TO OH AND HAVE PRE OP APPOINTMENT TOMORROW!!
I am on this 2 week liquid pre op diet!! Surgery is scheduled for 7/30! Getting a little nervous but really want to eat some real food... Im trying hard but not loosing much! I have cheated and had and egg after I took my ambein. Any recommendations for curving my appetite? Drink 3 protein shakes a day and then I can have 1 SF jello OR 1 SF popsicle for a snack!
Keep yourself busy, busy, busy...I did the liquid pre-op diet for 3 weeks (I was allowed 1 "lean and green" meal daily, though). Drink water or some other calorie-free beverage like it's your job because post-op, that's what you'll have to do. Start building the habits you will need after surgery NOW.
hang in there...you can do this!
Go for a nice long g walk... or a jog... hang out with a friend get on the phone... stay on this form and anything else you can think of just keep busy busy busy ... I remember I'd try to sleep as late as I could and go to bed as early as I could I figures I could try to sleep it away!!!! :-) remember what's ahead ... you can do it... you got this!!! Keep going!!!! :-)

I definitely agree about keeping yourself busy. I was always on the go int he weeks before surgery and that really helped with my mental state.
