Hello! I've had such low energy since is started my diet. I'm guessing it's the no carbs. I am curious as to how everyone else is getting energy through the day?

When I was on my Pre-op liquid diet I used to get weak and light headed. I found that when I increased my Protein intake, I felt better. Another scoop of protein for my shakes.

Hope this helps!

Thank you!!! I didn't even think about adding another protein scoop to my shake.

I'm having this issue to and went to bed at 7pm. I also found out my Vitamin D was super low so that could be part of it too.





Maybe I should start taking Vitamins too! Thank you!

You should definitely be on Vitamins. If your Vitamin D is low it can contribute to fatigue. Also, check B12 and possibly Iron. If you're anemic, that too will cause dizziness and fatigue.
Good luck!

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
