ready_forchange 39 Posted March 31, 2017 Has anyone started their liquid diet early. I'm trying to get use to not eating solids for a while. I am drinking a Protein Shake for breakfast and then for lunch, and then I eat a small dinner. Is this a bad idea? I have my last weigh in Tuesday, and everything will be submitted.

orionburn 1,024 Posted March 31, 2017 I think it's a good idea. I did some liquid only Breakfast & lunches to help prepare for it. For me I'm glad I did it. The pre-op was still rough for the first few days but I think it helped take the initial edge off of it. 1 ready_forchange reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm doing the same thing, I started my pre-op a week early and when I met my surgeon he was really happy. The more weight we lose before surgery will prepare us better (smaller liver and less fat located in stomach) and less weight to lose after surgery. 1 ready_forchange reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
