The very low carb thing is required to shrink the liver. If your doc says low carb, definitely go low carb! Mine basically has me on a three week modified atkins: two shakes, and a lean Protein for dinner. I cheated with a banana today and will again tomorrow for Breakfast, only because I want to make sure my potassium levels are good for my pre-admission blood test tomorrow (gotta stay on that potassium and calcium!)

Hi. Well, I started my journey January 28 this year I've lost 59 pounds on the medically supervised diet and have decided to move forward to the sleeve on July 16. Very excited to continue this path. I'm 50 years old and live in the area.

Do you count your Protein Shakes in with your liquid intake? I drank 32oz of Water and had 27oz of Protein shakes.

I start my two day liquid diet tomorrow and surgery Friday!!!!!! I am soooooo ready! I already started my lifestyle change and I am very happy with it. I won't lie, there's always temptation. Then I think about why I'm doing this and overcome temptation. Good luck everyone! We are all doing this with goals in mind. Stay focus as you reach your goals. I am truly happy for everyone! Any pain nausea whatever issue we have, we will overcome. Stay positive!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
