Milk diet anyone?



Recommended Posts

I have to be on this milk diet for 3 weeks. I want to know has anyone else needed to be on this diet as well?

Im worried I will fall off the wagon because a week into this diet, I am going to my high school reunion, and with the food, the alcohol, and the party scene, well, I think anyone would be worried...

Any suggestions, or advice for me?

What is the milk diet? I've never heard of it before. What does it entail?

It looks to me like this must be your pre-op diet. That's a bummer that the reunion coincides with the pre-op stuff. I'd check with your surgeon and see if he'll give you the all-clear to have that one day off. If not, then I would stick with what he's told you. If you can't handle being there and not straying from you pre-op diet, then I wouldn't go, if I were you.

But then again, I hated my last high school reunion. Hated it. I was fat and unhappy. None of my friends were there. We left early.

Good luck!

I have heard of the milk diet but I never heard of a doctor prescribing it. I can't help but wonder if you will lose all desire for milk after spending three weeks on nothing but milk. :0)

I would talk to your doctor as well about having a night off. Perhaps you can start a couple of days early to offset it.

I would like to know more about the milk diet too. I love milk but I don't drink alot of it since I try to only have Water.

The best advice is always to follow your doctors rules but I myself would probably have fun for the 1 night. But I guess I am not the best rule following bandster hehe

The milk diet goes as follows.. I am suppose to drink SKIM MILK 3 times a day, as much as I want, in 5 minutes. Then I can drink Water and crystal light throughout the day.

So, Im a little anxious about doing it, but I cant even eat vegetables either. They want me on a VERY LOW CALORIE DIET. They want me to lose a bunch of weight before the surgery, and to shrink my liver as well. Im just nervous about the reunion thats all with, with everyone drinking and eating.. it could be hell.. lol

Alcohol isn't going to be good for shrinking your liver, so don't do that!

Never heard of a milk diet though, I'd imagine a lot of poo'ing is involved!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
