BryJohn 72 Posted April 11, 2013 Cacucci. Have u heard of her? How much are you wanting to loose? I'm going for 100....that just sounds sooooooo out of reach. No I haven't. I'm still waiting on a call from my Dr. I'm also wanting to lose 100 to 105. So far I've lost 30 on the liver reduction diet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zacben 10 Posted April 11, 2013 I've started the liver reduction diet. Its not too hard so far, but I'm only on day 2 lol. The hardest part for me is having to eat 3 meals and 3 Snacks a day and I m so busy I hate keeping a food journal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BryJohn 72 Posted April 11, 2013 I've been on it since Jan 11 which was my first appointment. The first month I did have a few last suppers for myself. The three major ones were eating sushi, homemade beef and noodles and drinking beer. The first thing I did was cut out diet coke and that happened the very first day.

Hemlock99 6 Posted April 11, 2013 Cacucci did my friends RNY 8 years ago. She's a good Dr., but she's not known for her bedside manner. I don't know about her office staff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BryJohn 72 Posted April 11, 2013 Yes I'm taking a multi Vitamin and calcium citrate with D. I'm supposed to be journaling but I don't. I eat basically the same thing everyday for lunch and Breakfast. I haven't had a Carb since I quit drinking beer over 2 months ago. I'm going to Nashville next week and I am going to have some Hot chicken.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BryJohn 72 Posted April 12, 2013 I don't really snack but sometimes when I get home from work early in the afternoon I'm hungry. At times like that ill eat some low fat cottage cheese or string cheese. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lizv123 389 Posted April 12, 2013 What do u snack on when u get the munchies? Jerky is packed full of protein! It's a good snack. And the turkey Jerky and chicken jerky doesn't have a high sodium content. Yogurt and cheese are always good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
