This pre-op diet is in day 3 and I make it ok until about 3:30p.m. Then, I starve. I am so hungry. Does this get any better? I know the goal and I keep looking at that, but this is HELL! Add that to the fact that I have a sick kid and haven't slept well...
Ok I will quit bitching now...

Hang in there - the first week is tough. I found that the second week got easier.
Just keep looking at the goal at the end - you can do it!!!
I think it got a bit easier towards the end..but it really made me appreciate the little bits of food after surgery.. :0) And after it's all done.. it's so worth it.. good luck!
I would get hungry late afternoon too. I was able to eat all the low-carb veges that I wanted (celery, radishes, broccoli) so I used to eat a bunch of raw ones the first week with lots of salt. I found with peeing so much I craved salt. It will get better. And believe me, if I could do it so can you. They also told me to have an extra protein shake if I got really hungry. I think it is the chew we miss.
Oh man, pre op diets just plain suck! Hang in there honey!
It gets easier...hang in there!
I'm one month post band (not counting 2-week liquid only pre-op diet) and the pre-op diet was hands down the hardest part of this entire process thus far.
Hang in there...you'll make it through.
I honestly do not think it would be a big deal to eat some high protein/low carb meals. Or at least like Sandy Lee suggested, some low carb veggies. I personally think a 2 week liquid only diet is too extreme, but I know a some surgeons require it. Luckily mine does not. It will give you an awesome weight loss.
