Started liver shrinkage diet today

[Karen D]

I woke up today feeling it is the first day of the rest of my life. Dr. Changed my diet yesterday from having 4 oz protein and 2 cups of vegetables for lunch and dinner to just dinner. Now protein shake breakfast and lunch. I was a little worried but it wasn’t bad at all. March 7th can’t come soon enough!

That's awesome Karen! Good for you! The pre op diet is very reasonable! I just went through with surgery last month. Your surgical team will thank you for following through on the pre op diet. I wish you the best with your surgery!

The liver shrinking diet was not bad. My body very quickly adjusted. Glad you’re handling it well. Happy for you that your date is coming up soon. You ARE starting a new life & you’ll be happy you did. Big changes are coming your way. Keep smiling & stay positive!

My pre-diet was all shakes and it went by faster than I thought it would. Good luck!

My pre-op diet is all shakes too, Suthy. I'm afraid I'll get real crabby. I work 3 10+ hour days and 2 half days per week and am afraid I won't have any energy to make it through it. Any advice?

Well today and tomorrow only liquids then Tuesday is D day. I’m a little nervous but more excited. I thought today would be really Hard but it wasn’t too bad. Anyone else out there scheduled for Tuesday?

Keep your eye on the prize! The shakes give you the calories you need to get by, and I felt like it was doable. I was really motivated to do what I needed to have surgery and stick to the plan. It’s worth it!
