ok was struglin a lil bit b4 so i had a banana still hungry but drikin some nad sugar juice to try and tide me over i dont want to have lunch just yet as had breky late 11am so i wanna try and wait till about 2 2.30 then i can have my t as late as 7ish as i always get the munchies at night so if i have t late im less likely to want to grab somethin and ive more chance of stayin on the track so to speak lol

 

[claudia24]

i get the munchies at might, worst thing ever lol.

but in 15days it will all be worth it hun xx

The first four-ish days were the worst for me but your body does start to adjust.
Just remember one thing...hunger isnt your enemy, I have always been a 'oh Im hungry I dont like the feeling lets eat to make it go away' kind of person and once I got my head around the fact that I got the gnarles of hunger and didnt eat them away, that hunger is fine and no harm was going to come to me for feeling it, so I just worked with it.
Good luck on your journey hon xx

Hi Pinky, I'm on day 8 of my pre op diet, it is hard but stick with it as the rewards are there. Just make sure you drink as much fluids as you possibly can.

Good luck!

I agree with Cuppa, drink as much as possible, it is filling and very good for you.
I was chugging through loads of Fruit Shoot H2O's Blackcurrant flavour and they are very tasty and also sugar free.
Try getting into the taste of peppermint tea as well, I did before the op and now afterwards it really does seem to shake free some of the trapped gas, cheers your mouth up a bit too because the taste in your mouth and the furry tongue sucks!
Anyway, Im sure you'll be fine and good luck to ya xx

You can do it. Next week you'll be wondering why you were doubting yourself. Just think of the prize at the end of it.

Hi pinkylin it is a hard diet but it has to be done I am due to start it again on 23rd November as my op is only 5 weeks away and like you I am calm one day and cackin it the next but I try not to think about it too much.
I found having a glass of diet coke at night helped me I think the gas probably filled my tum a bit, and I am not a big fizzy pop drinker but yes it definately helped.
Keep at it, try not to think about it too much and it will get better
Good luck .............you can do it
