Any One on The Liver reduction diet over Christmas?

[loubyl00]

I also am on the liver diet over xmas and have been on it since the 9th Dec.
My op is on the 9th Jan.
I find the the low ft low carb diet ok as no hunger pains at all despite hubby buys little nick nacks for xmas. The only think with the diet I find hardest is my liquid intake as hate plain tap water ( council pop , hence I brought bottle flavour water today.

Im not keen on tap water either. Im gonna try flavoured water now. Im having NAS squash. I dont drink hot drinks, so trying to drink as much as possible.

I'm not keen on nas squash but found one that I like vimto I have been having 2 glasses of that a day and around 10 cups of tea lol. I was never a fizzy pop drinker and have always had tea. Day 4 over and done with and now half way through day 5, hunger pangs have kicked in as soon as I got up but my stomach has definitely deflated so worth it, keep up the good work everyone. X x x

HI, i too am on pre-op over xmas and new year! timing eh!! i love to cook as well as eat, so gave myself a target of 10lb loss by the 25th and the reward was a modified but still indulgent dinner. this morning ( day 5)..11lb off! so homemade butternut squash soup ( no croutons). prawn cocktail, (no bread and butter) lots of veg ( 1 roastie) turkey/beef and a spoonful of stuffing. and if i still have room, sugerfree jelly trifle. also to drink - 1 bottle of white wine and 4 litres of soda water!!! so it lasts all day and night!! i then have until 19th jan to lose more

Hun i think you will be ok on Xmas day, just try and stick to low fat stuff.. and maybe instead of having rast potatoes for dinner have a couple of boiled potatos or a jacket. use low fat gravy ie bovril.... desert you can get low sugar custard/ trifle/ rice pudding.... enjoy your xmas day... just avoid the sweet stuff x thats my advise... but give your dietician a call and see what they say.... if its any consolation i thought i was on soft foods from today but been told i got to wait until next friday.. so my food is gonna be pureed lol xx
