Hows everyone getting on there pre op diet?

I found the first week a bit of a drag and hard but managed keeping my mind on the prize.

Yesterday I seamed to have turned a corner and feel really good with my diet and not hungry all day, plus not food isnt on my mind all either ( hope it lasts).

Plus big bonus is I weighed myself and I am 12lbs lighter
Fingers crossed my liver is smaller too


Hope everyone else is doing ok xxxxx

Hi

My pre-op diet was the milk version with one oxo a day. I was told to do it for 7 days but did it for 10 just to be sure. I really got on well with it and never felt hungry once on it.

I either drank the milk with NAS Crusher added or used it to make all milk coffees. If it wasn't for the constipation I could have done it for longer, but in the end it did the job and I lost 8kg on it, so not too bad, losing over a stone in 10 days.
