Recommended Posts

I'm pre-op and need to drop 10 pounds for surgery. The doctor said to go on a all liquid diet and I'll drop weight quick but didn't give me any ideas in what fluids to do. Anyone have any advice how I can drop 10 pounds quick???? Any help or advice is welcome.....:thumbup:

I did 2 low carb, high Protein Shakes and 1 small low carb, low fat meal (1 meat + veggie) for 2 weeks prior to surgery and lost 12 pounds. I have heard many other people say they had to do just the shakes for 2 weeks though. I bought mine already made from Target or Wal-Mart.

Other good liquids is crystal light, diet snapple. just take a walk down the juicve isle of your grocery store. sugar free Jello is a good snack too. Stay away from sugar and carbs. just keep flushing your body with these and Water. drink water till its obscene!

I had to do Optifast and Clear Liquids for two weeks before my surgery and dropped almost 20 lbs. That is what I would highly recommend.
