They are called Optifast. It is the same brand as the shakes I am drinking. It is a prescription diet my doctor requires 2 weeks before surgery. It comes in chicken flavor and Tomato herb. Both kinds are actually pretty good. After shakes all day, it is a major treat to have the Soups.

broth my savior! I ended up drinking 3 cups for a total of 30 calories and feel so much better. Good job snow! So I wish I only had a couple of more days to go... I'm worried about my poor class too- especially when I know this week will be filled with treats at school :/

I wish I could just get use to eating like this all the time... Protein shakes, sip broth through the day and a light dinner... Then maybe I wouldn't need surgery :/ oh who am I kidding? I'm already thinking about the delicious, healthy things I'll get to eat in a couple months ;)

So interesting seeing how different all liquid diets are! I start mine on New Year's Day for two weeks. I am allowed 6 glucerna shakes a day as well as Water, crystal light, broth, and sugar free icepops or Jello. It'll be a LOng two weeks!!!! :(

on my liquid diet I was allowed cottage cheese. so whenever I would feel hunger in between shakes I would take a bite and it git me through. the losing weight helps shrink your liver and being on a strict liquid diet can cause fast rapid weight loss. its nothing to lose up to 15 pounds while on it

Those on fast Chew gum and eat Popsicles. It's all in the mind so just keep telling yourselves that it is for your health and you don't want complications.

3 more days of liquid diet. This is the first diet I have not cheated on. I'm in the zone now.. In a contest with myself to not cheat. Gotta say I feel good, I've lost 20 pounds, and haven't been too hungry. Lots of Water is keeping me honest. Whenever hunger kicks in, I drink lots of water. Good luck, all!

      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.
