I disagree big time. My surgeon requires a 2 or 3 week liquid pre op diet. I did a 3 week one and lost 23lbs in 3weeks! From tuesday that I started to that Friday (3days later) I lost 9lbs.

The liquid diet is only for getting you ready for surgery and for healing after surgery.

You can not live the rest of your life on a liquid diet. That is not realistic. You need to learn to eat regular food in a healthy manner.

No more crazy diet plans, thats how I got fat.

Time to eat like skinny ppl do.

Best of luck

solid food Protein sticks with you, allowing you to feel full longer. They tell us not to drink 30 min before and at least 30 min after eating protein first, veggies second. If you are drinking your protein, it does not stay in your pouch as long as solid food does. You may need more fills also. Your doctor's office is a good resource, especially if you are snacking between meals.

remember oprah?

she lost alot of weight (quickly) on a liquid diet

once she started eating again (and most likely more calories than she burned off), she gained it all back...maddygrams was 100% correct.

eat to lose weight

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
