Liquid Diet



Recommended Posts

Well my weight lost has been very slow so I restarted a little modified liquid diet to get my body a push start into losing weight again.

Started with B-Liquid, L-reqular food, D-Liquid. I hope this get it's it going again then I'll go back to reqular food. I been stuck at 245-249 for 3weeks and it getting me mad =(

I'll increase working out soon but working 2 jobs.... my hours available are limited but i gotta find time.

I called my doctor and they told me I can come back in for FILL but I gotta wait for 3 more weeks before I go in. Each fill can only be 6week between, well it better then waiting 3months like they told me on last visit.

Good luck . . . how this helps! I stalled for 3 weeks before my fill . . . so I know how frustrating that is! Hang in there . . .

My PA told me to schedule my next fill when I leave from my appt's. And then, if I don't need it, cancel it. She said I should know a week or so in advance if I'm not going to need it and they would always be able to fill my time.

Just something to think about in case fill appts are hard to come by in your office.

My PA says 4 weeks minimum and I'm dying to get there on Monday. If I had to go 6 weeks I might eat my leg by then.

As for the liquid diet, are you getting enough calories in? Be sure to get enough of those as well as Protein. Starvation mode or hair loss wouldn't make you feel better than a plateau. Good luck though. I'm curious if it works though. I've been stuck for about that long too. I blame myself though. I haven't been as diligent as I should be and have been making bad choices. Let us know how this works for you. Thanks!

I think im getting a ok amount of calories with this type of diet cause im not completely starving my body and getting atleast 70+ gram of protien a day (depending on what for lunch... ) and each drink is like 250cal & 30gram protien. Plus I think im only doing this for 1 week (maybe 2), so it shouldnt be that bad

I'll also check the forum also under food and see what other people are eatting to get a better idea.

I just cant wait to loose about 25 more pounds... which is the weight when I was in 20's =) (225-218)

So far the liquid breakfest and dinner and regular lunch has been going ok. I'm down to 243 (morning) and 245 (night), and I been feeling ok. So i'll keep this up for 1 more week and then stop and go back to regular food.

I have also called my doctor and reschedule my fill, which will be done in 3 weeks. I was feeling hungry and I didnt feel to much restriction or at all. Hopefully after fill it will make it alittle easier to control reg food.< /p>

I really want to hit 200's by 4th July for family gathering. (5months)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
