I am almost 3 months and eat between 600 and 800 a day depending on if I stay up to study. My days are usually from 5 am to 12 am or 7 am to 2 am. So I have a lot more time than others to fuel myself. Most people stay around 500 - 600 from what I have seen.

I still don't get all my Water in everyday. It is tough! Same with Protein. I average 60 grams a day and probably around 50 oz for Water. I need to buckle down with the water though!

I got sick a few weeks ago, maybe a month, and ended up in the hospital because of dehydration. I am sure if I had been keeping up with it before it wouldn't have been so bad.

Have you tried hot/cold/room temp variations? Some people say temp can help.

Also, try adding some crystal light/lemon/flavoring to it. I have heard that plain Water is what hurts people.

      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.
