Liquid Jumpstart?



Recommended Posts

Hey September Samurais!! Well it has been over a year for us and I have to tell you that I am not as happy where I am in my weight loss as I should be. I am already at 8cc on a 9cc Realize Band. I have to make this work...so I was thinking of doing the Liquid Protein Diet for 2 weeks like we did for Pre-op. Just to jump start my metabolism and lose an easy 15 pounds to get me motivated. Would any of you like to join me? We can check in every day or every other day. Start with a week then see if we can do more? Let me know!:tt1:

Sounds Good to me! I went for a fill today and was bummed to see that I have regained 6lbs during the holidays! Which puts me under the original 50lb mark! UGH! So I started the liquids today as always after a fill, but I am game to try the 1-2week liquid jump start! I really want to get these last 30lbs off by my 40th bday which is in September! Good Luck to both of us!

So my Master Cleanse Lemonade Diet was successful for the 1st 6 days then I had to get off of it. The thought of drinking that again makes me want to gag. I did however lose 11 pounds and only gained 4 pounds back due to Water weight. All in all it was successful. I only have 2 cc's left in my band to be a capacity and have only lost 45 pounds in 2 years. I havent really gained or lost in almost a year so I needed a real jumpstart. Do you know anyone who is at capacity in their band?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
