Liquid Phase

I dont understand how the body doesnt lose weight being in the liquid stage. I am on liquids for 4 weeks. I would think that I would be losing weight. But then I see all the comments that people gain, or maintain until they get a fill. :help: I dont understand. I must be missing some part of the equation. LOL

I lost weight on the liquid stage. I was on it for 10 days pre-op and lost 10 pounds. After surgery I was on Clear Liquids for 4 days and then full liquids for another 10 days and lost another 5 pounds.

I would say that it has to do with what type of liquids you are drinking and how much. I would have 1 slim fast at each meal and then just have diet drinks in between. I was really trying hard to shrink my liver.

Good luck!

I think most people do lose weight on the liquid phase, I think it's the mushie phase where people tend to gain.

I would think that if you choose good/healthy liquids with Protein and you should be able to see some weight loss. I was on liquids for 2 weeks and I lost 10 lbs as well.

Maybe adding some exercise will help kickstart your metabolism? Best of luck!
