It's day 8 of liver shrinking diet



Recommended Posts

Last week was absolutely awful, but this week is so amazing. I had no idea how I was going to stop the cravings and control myself, but I went through the sugar withdrawals and I'm on the other side. I feel like I have more energy, I'm happier, I'm more alert and less foggy headed. I feel great. Tell me, do I feel like this after bypass too?

It is okay!
This is a lifestyle change forever. It's not going to be easy and I believe in order for it to stick, we have to gradually change. I think if I could have lost weight alone, I wouldn't need this surgery in the first place. So I'm weak. But this surgery will make me stronger. So don't beat yourself up for falling. Just get back up and keep your eyes on the prize :)

Day two. Did great until 8pm. Had a pb and j :-(


Girl you gotta keep your eye on the prize. This surgery is a tool, but if you can't keep yourself from reaching for what hurts you, the surgery won't work. The first few days by the end of the day I was so hungry, I just went to sleep instead of cheating.

You're on the liver shrinking diet? My dr told me to have 4 oz of lean meat so I've been eating chicken

      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.
