Liquid Diet

Hi Smilecharmer,

Your liquid diet varies depending on what your surgeon says. But, mine was 4 protein shakes a day (5 or less net carbs), 1 low carb yogurt, 1 sugar-free pudding. I could have unlimited sugar-jello, popcicles, crystal light, broth, water, and decaf tea. I could also have egg-drop soup (which is what got me through it).

I ate about 3 or 4 chicken breasts over the course of the two weeks because I was really hungry. Some surgeons allow you to do liquids and 1 meal a day which consists of 3oz lean meat and a veggie. I wish I had had that one! But, I made it... and you will too!

Congrats on your decision to get WLS! Good luck on your journey!

Hi Rachel, Thanks for the info. I called the Nutrionist yesterday and she told me I could eat one meal at the end of the day,4-6 ounces of lean meat and non-starchy vegetables. So I am in 7th heaven. Thanks for the encouraging words.
