Congrats! So happy for you!

I had been on an all liquid diet with 3 protein shakes daily during mine it was hard at first but you you get used to it and it was a great prep for the all liquid diet for two weeks after surgery!...

I also experience this and it does seem to happen if the food is too dry, if I'm not chewing enough, or getting full.

My boyfriend broke out the grill and grilled me a NY Strip Steak in the snow! And I had steak and strawberries my last night before my liquid diet.

Try drinking a cup of beef or chicken broth that helped me for the salty food craving. You can do it stay positive it get's easier.

I love coffee I work 3rd shift so I would drink it all night long. But since I had my surgery I can't stand how it smells or tastes. (And I guess the getting backed up is a norm then huh?)
