Liver reduction diet protein shake



Recommended Posts

Hi all! I had a group meeting recently with the dietitian at my doctors office to discuss the liver reduction diet. The dietitian made the suggestion to add a teaspoon of sugar free pudding to the shake to add more flavor. I must say this is the answer to making these shakes decent. So far I got chocolate, vanilla, banana cream and lemon pudding for my shakes.

Just thought I would share this for those who are struggling with Protein Shakes because they are generally not very good. I know when I first tried the shakes all the flavors tasted the same.

Now I finally have the answer and feel way more prepared to start the liver reduction diet this Saturday!

That's a great trick, I haven't done that in ages.

Da Vinci also makes some good sugar free syrups you can add to your shakes for some variety (as sugar free pudding only comes in a handful, da Vinci has like 60+ flavors)

Another option is to just make sugar free Protein pudding, which is basically the exact same ingredients (assuming you're using milk) just now you can eat it.

I use Torani sugar free syrups. My fave is to make a frappucino - 1 cup cold coffee, scoop of vanilla Protein Powder, chocolate and caramel sugar free Syrup. Ice. Blend.

Another is to use chocolate Protein powder, 1 scoop of PB2, a shot of caramel sugar free syrup and Water. Add ice, blend. Snickers shake.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
