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)

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
