Did your liquid diets consist of one small meal and then shakes?

No. I have to have a Protein Drink for Breakfast, lunch, dinner and evening snack. I can have SF Jello and SF popsicles and a limited number of fruits and veggies (but only a max. of 2 cups of those a day). I can honestly say I don't feel that hungry but I'm already sick of the shakes and I'm only 1 day in. Ughhh!!!

My surgery is Wed the 3rd. I don't have to do a PreOp diet just a light diet the day before surgery. Getting nervous and excited...but mostly nervous!

Hi' date=' guys! I just got my surgery date last night. I'm scheduled for July 29 and I have to admit I'm starting to freak out a little! I think it's because it seems more real now that there is an actual date set.[/quote']

I'm right with ya had no scared feelings till I found out my date. Maybe because I'm hungry because I'm on a 4 week liquid diet, I'm miserable.

I am scheduled for July 3rd. Preop is scheduled for July 2nd and I am really excited. I would be lying if I said I am not nervous but I would be for any surgery. I am trying to make sure I have everything prepared at home so life will be easy. My doctor gave me a "shopping list" that make post op life a little easier. I have been on my preop diet for 8 days now and have lost 12 lbs. Ready for the numbers to drop.

My surgery is July 10. Today is day 6 of Optifast liquid diet, not going to badly for the most part. Yesterday I was whit queasy and dizzy but I think it was because I went to long between shakes.

Would you mind sharing the shipping list your doctor have you? I am also trying to get organized and would love to see if I have everything I need. Thanks.

Good luck to everyone in July :-)

Just got approved yesterday, finally! It feels so much less stressful, knowing that I am really, seriously approved. I guess the third time (submitting documents to my insurance) was the charm :) No more insurance battles! I was originally hoping for a May surgery date, then I was postponed to June, & now July. The scheduler is going to call me on Weds with my date. Really, really hoping for a July date. If she says August, I think I might have to scream!

      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...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        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.
