Banded On 1/31 ... 2 Weeks Liquids

[MrsMoulton 0]

I start my two weeks of liquids tomorrow and I am already nervous as hell. Scheduled to be banded on 1/31. Anyone else survive this long on liquids without getting homicidal?

Same here. Will be banded on the 30th. I was supposed to go on the 3rd, but had to resched. I did the 2 back in December and I didn't want to kill anyone. I actually enjoyed it. I felt great. I use Jay Robb's chocolate egg white Protein Shake. I have two a day. I use Coconut Dream for my milk replacement and put 1/2 banana, 1/4 cup of blueberries and either 1/4 apple or 1/4 cup of raspberries in each shake. I use one scoop of Metagenics powder - Phytoganix (Organic Superfruits & Greens) as a fruit and veggie supplement, I take avitamin D3, Iron, Vitamin A supplement and a pro-biotic each day. I eat one meal a day which consists of 3-6 oz of Protein, a mixed green salad and 2 tsp of olive oil and of course 8 glasses of Water. That is my regime. I stay around 1000 cal. I also have 1 cup of coffee a day with 1/4 cup of organic skim milk. I am 5'5 211. Don't have a lot to lose. I've gained and lost 35-50lbs so many times. I'm exhausted.

YogaChick If my liquid diet was like yours I'm sure I would be fine as well. I am actually only allowed 3 shakes per day made with Water and unlimited non caloric liquids. No berries, bananas, yogurt and certainly no meals.

I,too, am being banded on 1/31. The shakes are a big adjustment but worth the effort. Don't give up! The rewards will be too numerous to count! 
