Day 4 of liquids. Experiencing swollen legs' date=' leg cramps and diarrhea. Any of you had same thing?

I am getting in all my Water and Protein, 1C broth, and all post-op required Vitamins... Not sure why this would lead to leg cramps![/quote']

Not enough potassium in your diet...too much lactic acid... Solution: Stretch...drink chicken broth and if you can..try a little pickle juice-works wonders for cramps.

I hear ya on the diahhreah... ive been going to the bathroom an awful lot..no wonder we lose weight on liquid diet...its all coming out the other end

How is the pre-op diet going for everyone? I find it challenging at night' date=' but otherwise I'm good.

I'm also getting nervous! I think it really hit me that I'll be removing my stomach permanently. I'm still on board of course, just a bit in shock.[/quote']

Thanks for that!! I'll get some pickle juice tonight and up my broth intake! Do you mind sending me a list of what a typical day of 'eating' is for you right now? I thought I had it all down, but apparently I don't!!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
