hi Donna, as hellish as it may be, unlike the cambridge diet you at least know doing this you are going to be keeping the weight off. Good luck and keep drinking xxxGaynor

Keep going onwards, dito what's been said. Also you could try lavender oil put on your wrists helps with headaches and stress. Patchouli oil is good for helping ward off hunger pangs put in burner with bit of water.

keep going hun i do think the milk diet gets easyer after the first few days i added sugar free rasberry crusha to my milk which made it yummy i also had my sugar free jelly in the evening gave me something to look forward to lol but it will def be worth it especially when you know how much weight drops off pre op!! keep strong xxx

good luck my advice is to go visiting friends / relatives of an evening im on day 13 and getting a bypass tomorrow. I struggled first few days due to the dreaded late night boredom so instead ive been out everynight and straight to bed when i get in. everyone has been excellent and supportive also caught up on all the gossip lol

Keep it up chucks it will all be worth it. Good luck.

Hi Donna, thats excellent news re. 18lbs gone! Hope I am as successful! One thing though - you say you are doing pre-op diet for 2 weeks, I was told only one week ( I'm going with Hospital grp at Dolan Park) and start my milk and yog diet 2mrw. I assume there are different requirements at different hospitals?? Also, have you any tips for me?
