Lol

So funny how different everyone's body is! I cant physically tolerate not eating and I have not lost any weight so far.

VERY depressing/frustrating especially since I cannot eat until friday

I thought about going back to liquid diet too for a few days, that is when I lost mine!

Don't forget your exercise...and post op, you should not be relying on the liquid diet to promote weight loss.

My surgeon has advised that over time, as our healing progresses, you need to rely on proper food choices and portions (along with exercise) for proper nutrition and weight loss.

If you rely on the liquid diet to provide weight loss, it would also mean that you may not be acquiring the necessary life skills to follow the bandster diet for successful weight loss.

Good for you!! I miss snap peas and snow peas..they are just a few of the things that don't go down good for me, even after destringing them.
