1200 calories of liquid?!?!

I'm on my pre-op liquid diet day 1 of 14 and I'm supposed to get 1200 calories in I've been drinking all day and got less than 500 calories in. I'm not hungry really, have done liquid diets here and there b4 but never counted calories. How am I suppose to work this thing?!?!

Wow, I'm starving on the liquid diet. Day 2/14. I suppose just keep eating/drinking. It shouldn't be a problem until you're sleeved.

Are u doing protein shakes also ??? ....

Glucerna hunger smart shakes....

Maybe try a different brand with more protein in it.... Like pure protein shakes or premier ... Chicken soup works good too ... With the pre op diet ..

Pure protein or premier isn't an option on the list they gave me, guess I just gotta drink more of everything :-/

As many as I want just not more than 1200 calories, the glucerna is 180 cals ea.... I don't drink juice or soda so I have to drink caseloads of these things.

Well the good thing is that you can have up to 1200 calories on these things!

I've never had glucerna so I don't know how they taste (I did premier) if you feel satisfied with what you took in today, then I think that's great. The good thing is if tomorrow you feel you need more you can have more!

(I was on shakes only on my pre op. I was allowed 800 a day)

They are good but not that good that I can have 6 of then in one day lol. I bought some myoplex and slim fast shakes too so hopefully I'll survive these two weeks.

3 scoops in 12oz of Water = 280 calories. If you want to make it extra tasty, use milk instead of water.

:D

Your woman card, hand it over! :lol:

There are other AMP Wheybolic flavors (Cookies and Cream, strawberry, Vanilla) that you could try.
