Thanks Amazon and Jennifer! I lost the most in the first three weeks or so. I know that some of that was from the 13 lbs of Water I put on due to all the fluids they pumped into me during surgery and the next 24 hours, lol. I have lost steady and have not yet suffered any stalls. Going to the gym three times a week and using my fitness pal app on my phone has also helped!!

Where are you at in your journey?

I'll be 2 weeks on Tuesday. Lost 18# total. 13 of them were preop 2 weeks of just shakes. Still doing just shakes. Weird, thought I would have lost more only getting abour 500 calories net (after exercise).Hoping when I can add mushies this week might spark it up a bit.

They told me to get as much Protein in as was possible and 64 Oz of fluids. I had to gradually increase both and still struggle with the fluids part. Not sure what type of shakes you are using but my nut said to only use whey Protein isolate type shakes.

You are doing great, the lbs will drop!! Also, if you haven't already done so, take your measurements!! I didn't do this till I was about three weeks out and just re did them and am losing lots if inches and am down almost two full sizes with my current already getting big!!

Hang in and just follow the directions of your doc and nut, you will do great!!

Thanks! I'm hanging in, really trying to push the fluids. Doing mostly muscle milk light shakes. Did measurements preop, was going to wait a month to check but maybe I'll check a bit early! Good luck!

      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.

      Lost my Pup last month and struggled really hard for that first month. Stopped tracking intake and slid into old habits here and there. Also quit working out. Can't walk in the neighborhood because of all of the memories we shared. Losing my Pup is the most heartbreaking thing I've ever been through. My Pup was my world 💔
      Talked to my doc during my one year followup and they were not worried about my current status. They know, and I know, that I will get back on track.

        I'm so sorry. I lost my pup (Mr. Bitters - a chocolate Pomeranian) 2 years ago and it still makes me tear up. He was my everything - my constant companion. I understand. Do the best you can to get back on track.
