Hi! First time poster here. I’m on week 3 of my liquid diet and I’m struggling so much. I haven’t lost weight in about a week, and I’m not sure why. I’m back to my normal cardio and yoga workouts every day, I drink way more than 64oz of Water. My real issue is food, I am getting so nauseous (even with the anti-nausea meds) with all of the sweet Protein Shakes, etc. The only thing that I can eat without being nauseous is savory Soups with added Protein (and all of the recipes my dietitian gave me are low fat cream based) but I can only do about two cups a day of that. I basically don’t eat except for the one bowl of Soup a day and one protein water.
Does anyone have suggestions for what I can do? I desperately want to start the purée stage or at least have a scrambled egg because right now, I have no will to eat at all even though I’m hungry. Thanks for your help!
