Ok so no matter how hard I try to eat 1000 calories a day I can never make it most the time I can even make it past 500 calories my doctor says when I'm not hungry don't eat. Most mornings when I wake up I'm not hungry at all and I usually don't get hungry about 2 and then I'm hungry all afternoon. Even so I still cannot get 2000 calories a day that I need plus the exercise burns what I do you get. I do you make sure however that I try to get close to the Protein amount that I am supposed to have a date so I come pretty close to that just not the calories. Any suggestions?

Honestly, your surgeon is right. If you're not hungry don't eat. Just make sure what you do eat is healthy for you, like lots of lean Protein and veggies. Be sure to take your Multivitamin daily, too.

As long as you're making healthy food choices and getting in your protein, don't worry if you're under on calories.

I have never been a morning person and it takes me a couple hours before I can eat breakfast. Now I have a cup of hot coffee to flex the ban and then a Greek yogurt with some add ins. Might be an hour or two from when I get up before the yogurt. Breakfast consists of Chobani Greek yogurt with fruit; add in half scoop vanilla whey isolate, benefiber, Splendra to taste mix everything together; then 5-6 cut up walnuts (roasted is best), High Protein kashi go lean Cereal (1-2 protein scoops). Recent studies show people that eat a high protein dairy based breakfast loose more weight then those who eat other types of breakfasts (and people that eat breafast loose more than those who don't).

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
