Liquid Diet To Speed Things Up!



Recommended Posts

I was not in a stall, but almost to my goal, so I thought maybe I could speed things up a bit. Yesterday I woke up and was not hungry at all. So I had a Muscle Milk Light Caffe Latte for Breakfast. Then for a snack I had a small can of V8 juice. Then at lunchtime I still wasn't hungry so I had a Pure Protein chocolate drink. never was hungry even for an afternoon snack. About 4:00 I thought I should probably eat something even though still not hungry. Made myself a salad with chopped romaine and RTE cut up chicken breast from costco. Never hungry the rest of the night. I drink MIO flavored water all day and probably take in about a gallon a day. This morning I am down 2 pounds and feel great. I guess my point is, if you definitely aren't hungry, it may be worth it to try this as long as you have RTD Protein Drinks on hand. I always keep them, even though I usually don't have trouble getting protein in. I still can't even get in 800 calories a day, and don't have any trouble at all getting in the right foods. I am 4 months out today and now only 15 pounds from my goal. Yesterday I bought a size 8 pair of Levi Skinny jeans. I have very skinny legs! I chew a Bariatric Advantage Iron pill and two Bariatric Advantage Complex Multi Vitamins each day. May be a great way to break a stall. I will definitely do this liquid thing at least once a week or if not hungry, just have a RTD Protein Drink for a meal. Only the RTD though. I could never handle any I had to make from powder. LOVE MY SLEEVE SOOO MUCH!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
