Hi Noreen, drink plenty to fill you up and then find something to do lol. Stay on here, go out for a walk or even visit friends just keep away from the fridge!!! You will find it gets easier as the days pass. How long are you on this for?? What are you allowed??

Hi Noreen, I was on the milk diet - 2 pints of milk, 2 yoghurts and bovril drink. It was horrible for the first 3 days but then did get better. I put pretend sugar and vanilla essence in the milk so it tasted like milk shake. I hate normal milk. Good luck to you and try and keep strong. It is totally vital that you do. A couple of people have posted here that they have gone down for the op and then been sent back up again because of no reduction in liver.
How many days are you doing? I did 8 x

Oh Noreen good luck it must be so hard, but you can do it.
I will likely be put on mines when I go back in August, and I am dreading it as it will take me right through my hols...............aaarrrgghhh!!! However it must be done as Jenni says its the link to a successful op, so come on hunny bunny ......you like milk.....milk is lovely........it is so good for me..........it will help get me my op and lose me lots of lovely fatty pounds!!! Go Noreen, go Noreen xxx

It does get better honestly like the others have said, but it also gets you in the right place for afterwards when you are on fluids only. Hang on in there and just fill up on water of s/f squash everytime you feel hungry have a drink

Hi Noreen
Keep at it hun it will be worth it in the end when you get your surgery . And you start loosing weight drink plenty of water . Maybe if you go for a wee walk it might help you to take your mind off the food . Keep us posted . Good luck and take care .

Hi Noreen - this is my 6th day on the milk diet and i have to say i am no longer hungry (mind still would like a butty but it will never happen) Day 4 was the worst i would have killed for food any type of food but i just kept busy.

Have taken tips from others that have been on the diet and i have one of my yogs with sf jelly when my husband has his tea so that i can join in with the teatime thing. Also putting yog in blender with 6 ice cubes and milk makes a great shake and it takes ages to get down. You really need to just keep busy - sending you hugs with fairy dust to help your diet to get easier x

Thanks everyone for the support. I don't have any yogurts on my diet. It's milk, sugar free jelly, sugar free drinks and bovril.....would love a yogurt....I'm hanging in there.....size 10 size 10 size 10....here I come size 10.......lol xxxxx

Well done with the milk diet so far, you will be just fine. I personally am dreading doing it myself but i know it has to be done! ((Hugs))
