1200 calories of liquid?!?!



Recommended Posts

I'm on my pre-op liquid diet day 1 of 14 and I'm supposed to get 1200 calories in I've been drinking all day and got less than 500 calories in. I'm not hungry really, have done liquid diets here and there b4 but never counted calories. How am I suppose to work this thing?!?!

Wow, I'm starving on the liquid diet. Day 2/14. I suppose just keep eating/drinking. It shouldn't be a problem until you're sleeved.

Maybe try a different brand with more Protein in it.... Like pure Protein Shakes or premier ... chicken Soup works good too ... With the pre op diet ..

As many as I want just not more than 1200 calories, the glucerna is 180 cals ea.... I don't drink juice or soda so I have to drink caseloads of these things.

Well the good thing is that you can have up to 1200 calories on these things!

I've never had glucerna so I don't know how they taste (I did premier) if you feel satisfied with what you took in today, then I think that's great. The good thing is if tomorrow you feel you need more you can have more!

(I was on shakes only on my pre op. I was allowed 800 a day)

They are good but not that good that I can have 6 of then in one day lol. I bought some myoplex and slim fast shakes too so hopefully I'll survive these two weeks.

3 scoops in 12oz of Water = 280 calories. If you want to make it extra tasty, use milk instead of Water.

:D

Your woman card, hand it over! :lol:

There are other AMP Wheybolic flavors (Cookies and Cream, strawberry, Vanilla) that you could try.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
