Have Anyone Taken Any Control Your Appetite Pills Will Doing The Liquid Diet?



Recommended Posts

I will be starting my liquid diet on Monday. However, right now I'm doing a healthy diet that my NUT have issued. It consist of one Protein Shake in the morning, a handful of walnut or almonds, and half cut of berries. For lunch and dinner a lean Protein such as chicken, fish or beef but it has to be the side of a deck card and veggies. I find myself starving. I have found some of my phentermine pills and I was thinking to take them while I'm doing my liquid diet. Any advice?

I would not do that. When is your surgery? The phentermine could affect your heart & EKG results.

Sounds like your sx is just a few weeks away, if you are fighting hunger cravings, call the Nut & see what they suggest. Mine basically said we could have as much Protein and veggies as we want.

during my liquid diet I chicken broth help with hunger.

I didn't have any limitation in calories so I can drink 5 Protein shakes + as much chicken broth + Water as much as I want.

so whenever I feel hungry I just drink the chicken broth and the hunger subside.

Good Luck with your surgery.

If you stick it out for a few days, ketosis will kick in which will naturally curb your hunger. Just DON'T CHEAT as that will prolong the period when you feel hunger. You might also find it helpful to save one shake until an hour before bedtime. During the day you can do other things to take your mind off your hunger but when your laying in bed, it can be pretty harsh without something in your belly.

I wouldn't suggest appetite suppressants. If you can get to day 3 it gets much easier. I can have sugar free popsicles and Jello, broth and 3 protien shakes. I'm always hungry physically but not appetite wise. I'm on day 4 & I'm down 7lbs in 3 days. Just stick to it and don't cheat, I feel I'm preparing for the two weeks of liquid after surgery. You can do this! I'm even having to prepare meals for my children and husband. And I haven't even licked my fingers after getting spaghetti sauce on it. I am praying a lot too. You will be able to do this! My surgery its monday I will pray that you get through your LD with ease :o) Best of luck :o)

      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.
