Hi all,

Just wanted to ask you all a question...

I'm planning to include Muesli (or some other whole grain cereal) into my meal plan. The past few days I have been very low on energy and feel slightly dizzy during workout. I'm doing only 500-700 calories a day and it is not sufficient for my workouts. So I want to increase my calories intake without sabotaging the weight loss badly.

I thought muesli would be a good idea because of the Fiber, but the sugar is also equally high and now I'm confused. So do you guys think it would be okay to eat muesli for Breakfast?

What kind of cereals do you guys eat?

Thanks!

Do you eat or drink before you workout? I did that too and I started drinking a Protein Shake or eating a yogurt before I work out and it helped with dizziness.

I drink a small cup (100 ml) of milk before workout. I havent had this dizziness before - it is just the past two days. I realized that my calories intake was especially low these two days. I usually have a mid-day snack of two egg whites (scrambled) everyday. But I missed it these two days. And also I didnt feel like eating at all the whole day yesterday. Today my appetite returned but still, I'm hitting only 600 calories.

      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...

        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.
