  1. I was on liquid diet for 4 weeks. Was not really bad after day 2. 6 protein shakes a day. About every 3 hrs. Had band done today, MD said liver look great. Because he said if liver size not done would close me up without doing surg. Lost 43 Pounds during that time. The way I looked at it it was free wt loss, will not come back on. And it was only 4 weeks out of my life. Good luck. Hell did not even eat all my shakes at the end. Not hungry. lol

Tolerating liq well. Can feel my stomach, but not hurting. Thanks for all the help from reading the board. Got to love it.
