I'm trying so hard to eat as little as I can so I lose as much as possible before surgery. It's driving me insane being hungry all the time! I am eating, I have a Protein Shake for Breakfast and eat lightly for lunch and dinner but surgery isn't until 2/27 and I don't know if I can make it.

I know realistically it isn't true, but I feel like I'm going to be hungry forever. UGHHHH

I know how you feel. As I was going through my six month doctor visits and having to lose 15 pounds, I felt like I would never stop eating! Now I am on my two week liquid diet to prepare for surgery. You get used to it by day three or four. Good luck.

Pookybear, my preop diet is the same as yours, but we can have two high Protein Snacks and sf Jello or Popsicles. Whenever I feel hungry, I drink a bunch of Water until I can get to my next meal. Logging in Lose It! I'm eating between 800-1000 per day. Hope that helps.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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...

        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.
