The 4 weeks of liquids only ?

For a person who has problems losing weight the pre and post liquids only, somewhat scares me.

Any tips for getting through that month?

As your Dr for an exact list of what you can and cannot consume. Does liquids include Soup? Does it include Protein shakes? Milk? Crystal Light? Tea? coffee? Jello? Popsicles?

If so, then you'll be fine. It won't be easy, don't get me wrong, but you'll be able to survive if you think about it as one-day-at-a-time and as preparation for surgery and post surgery. Plus, you'll likely lose around 20-30 lbs doing this, which will make surgery much safer and recovery easier.

  • A Protein shake for Breakfast (or Isopure Zero Carb if you don't like milk like shakes).
  • A bowl of soup and a protein shake for lunch.
  • High protein Jello for a snack (instead of cold Water you use 1 c of cold IsoPure - makes it high protein)
  • A bowl of soup and glass of milk or protein shake for dinner.
  • A popcicle for dessert.
  • Protein Shakes for Snacks.

Definitely look into IsoPure protein if you want something more like Crystal Light.

Drink a lot of ice water, green tea, crystal light, sugar free popsicles, etc. You'll get through it.

And remember, if you can't make it through this - you'll have a hell of a time with life after surgery.
