Tips on Pre Op Liquid Diet?

Thread Starter  

This is my first post. I am getting banded on 7/18 and I start my pre-op liquid diet on 7/11. Any tips on getting through the hunger? Or just any tips in general>

I started my pre-op diet this past Sat. and my surgery is 7/17. My first day was the worst. I just stay busy and out of the kitchen. I still get a little hungry, but find that the protein in the shakes keeps me from getting the initial diet "shakes" that I've gotten in the past. Good luck!!! Nancy B.

I am on pre liquid diet (optifast) since 1 of July. The first two days were horrible. I had a bad headache and felt not really well.
My tips:
Stay away from carbs and drink plenty of water.
A cup of (herbal) tea helps me when I am hungry in between.

Good luck!
