Alang316 5 Posted February 14, 2023 I start my liquid diet on February 28th. I really scared about that. What are you using for your Protein Drinks? Sent from my SM-S908U using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sigh 196 Posted February 15, 2023 My date is March 1, and I dont have to start liquid diet until afterwards. Just low carb/no sugar one week out, although I’ve already started as a way to get my head in the game and stay invested. Good luck to all! 2 Quetta89 and NettyD reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Warrioreyez 8 Posted February 22, 2023 Nice! I started replacing 1 meal with the shakes. So far not too bad. Tomorrow I’ll be going full throttle. Nervous and excited. Do you have everything you need like Vitamins, heating pad, portion sized bowls,? I’ve added a bunch of stuff to my Amazon cart, but I have one last meeting with my surgeon tomorrow before March 7th. I’m going to ask if all of the stuff I have is really necessary. Lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
