Day 3 Finding My Battle Rythm



Recommended Posts

Hello All,

So I'm on my 3rd day of my liquid diet, and I have found what works for me to get thru the cravings. I have found taking my shakes at regular meal times, and maybe one in between and/or before bed curves my cravings to the point where I dont even notice that I'm on a liquid diet. I also found that eating vegtable, chicken, and beef bouillon curves my cravimgs too and if you put some hot sauce or jalapeno sauce it actually takes pretty good. Depending on what brand you get, it kind of reminds you of ramen noodles. Also, I've pounding the Water, but to mix it up I use crystal light, or drink another alternative. To my fellow diabetics, I usually took my insulin 3 times a day, but since I've started, over only had to take it once in the morning because my sugars have been between 90 & 100. I'm so excited! Never thought fighting for my health could be exciting at times. Hope you all are doing great ass well. See you tomorrow. Oh and thank you for ask your responses! You know who you are!

V/r,

DeShawn

I enjoyed reading your post...you've discovered early on my way to manage and cope with both the pre op and post op liquid diets...to structure your time and "meals" ( Protein shakes). And having broth is an excellent idea; I got cravings for salt several times and was so thankful for chicken broth!

Very good to read that your glucose levels are already responding favorably to your new diet...and the positive rewards will keep coming.

Best wishes for your success!

      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.
