Short story, my assigned plan is 4 -6 months eating what I would be allowed to eat once I'm allowed to return to solids post - op ; then a more restrictive diet for 3 -4 weeks, then the normal pre op diet then if approved surgery. I am in the first part 4 - 6 month diet. I was doing well then time stood still for some reason. I felt like one of those people on My 600 lb life talking to Dr. Now... for about 3 weeks I REALLY WAS following the plan but no movement... at all in fact the scale even ticked up a couple of pounds, I was perplexed because I knew I was not cheating. Then I was told to eliminate certain fruits and fruit serving sizes and bam, I'm moving again... woo hoo! Finally! Onward and downward (scale wise LOL)!

Glad you figured out what was holding you back! Some people are far more sensitive to sugars (even natural ones) and those carbs really mess them up.

Every time I stall, I have to cut the fruit. Its grueling, but necessary. It always solves the problem.

Exactly what my Dr. and NUT said.

I know right? who would have thought fruit could be a problem but it was. I have lost 7.7 pounds this week as of today! They moved me to berries and green apples only and that did the trick.

      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...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        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.
