Unhappy Pre-op liquid diet, help!

My doctor requires a 2 week liquid diet before the surgery. I'm on day 2 and I'm DYING! My stomach is constantly growling, I'm feeling weak and I can't think of anything but food.

Did any of you have to do a liquid diet before the operation? If so, how did you handle it? Did anyone cheat and eat something? I asked if I could eat vegetables and they basically told me no, I can't eat anything.

My mom had the surgery in Feb. and she just had to go on a no fat diet for a month beforehand. I'm SO jealous of her!

I feel really lucky because my sister (who lives with me) and my best friend are doing the liquid diet thing with me (except they're eating a small dinner), so I have support...but neither of them are as big as I am.

Please help? Any words of encouragement would help me right now I think.
