Liquid Diet - Losing Lbs before Surgery



Recommended Posts

So I am required to lose 10lbs before surgery and I wouldn't think of it as a problem if I didn't have a severe pain disorder.

I decided to make sure I lose the 10lbs before surgery that instead of a 1 day liquid diet which is required for my surgery I am going to do a 7 week liquid diet since my nutritionist mentioned that a lot of people do 7 days instead of 1.

I am not really doing it for the fat around my Liver since my current diet consists of lots of vegetables, and lean meats I don't think my liver will be very fatty.

For those who have done the liquid diet what kinds of things did you eat/drink?

Surgery is on the 12th eek

I'm on a 12 day liquid diet.....suckssssss

I use pure Protein Powder mixed with skim milk with ice and some yogurt. It really keeps me full for hours. My favorite thing to drink is miso Soup :)

I don't feel like it's causing me to loose weight. I actually feel heavier. I don't

Have a scale in my house. I refuse to buy one.

I don't have a scale either but I am tempted to buy one just to make sure I lose the 10lbs.

It's so hard to tell!

I was going to buy some miso Soup but has lots of sodium. Should we look for sodium or it's ok?
