I was on a two week liquid diet before and after surgery and I lost like 5 lbs before surgery.

I was on a liquid diet for 10 days. I was allowed 3-4 high protein/low carb shakes for meals (I used Atkin Advantage). I could also pick two items a day from a Protein list (hard boiled egg, 1 cup of milk, light yogurt, 1/2 cup nonfat cottage cheese, 2oz deli turkey/chicken) and could have 2 cups of raw non-starchy vegetables. And as many calorie-free/sugar free liquids as I wanted (water, crystal light, diet snapple, sugar free Jello, sugar free Popsicles, Decaf coffee/tea, and fat free broth). It was tough, especially the first few days but I stuck to it and lost 19 lbs.

I'm ending day 4 of 14 Optifast diet. Today was the hardest. Arguments with family members made be realize in an emotional eater. All I want is to chew something that isn't a crappy chocolate diet bar. But support groups helped me steer clear of Burger King and what could have been a total disaster.

I didn't have a prescribed diet, just had to lost 20 lbs. I was on Phentermine, I had a Protein Shake each day for Breakfast, Tomato Soup and popcorn for lunch (I don't care what anyone says, it worked) and a regular (healthy) dinner.< /p>
