Does anyone know another way to get potassium to avoid the calories from orange juice?

Yes, tablets. Here in Australia I know of one called slow k. My mum takes it every day because she is on diuretics and that strips her potassium levels.

Low sodium V8 has a lot of potassium in it. I think it's still a little too high in sodium, though. NoSalt brand salt substitute is potassium chloride. You can sprinkle that on your food and it tastes just like salt. Just don't do anything like mix some in Water and drink or you'll hurt your stomach. Tomato paste is also very high in potassium.

If you can fit a banana in your calorie count they are also high in potassium. As for being on a Water pill for a long time my mother has been taking them for 30 years.

I've been having the same issue this week!! It's driving me insane and making me depressed. And I still don't understand the concept of Water weight??!

My immediate impulse is to start changing things, exercising more, eating less, stop drinking Water, drink more Water, sacrifice a live chicken, anything to get the scale moving again.

OMG! sacrifice live chicken.... lol!!! that sounds like something i'd say!! too funny - but congrats on a successful journey!!!

      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.
