All. I am on day one of pre surgery diet and have to go to bathroom all the time. Has anyone else had this problem?

I've been on a liquid diet for 5 days. I had the bathroom issue in a serious way for the first few days, and then I felt okay. Then I became constipated. I am taking Fiber. It seems that the liquid diet varies. My liquid diet is Protein drinks made from skim milk and 100% whey powder. I can eat raw veggies, no dressing, 2x a day. I think that once my body got used to being starved, fewer than 1000 cal a day, it settled down. Good luck.

Yes the bathroom is going to be your best friend lol crazy I'm on day 6th

I have a question I'm on day 2 with my protein drinks & I want to know if there is a problem doing what I've done ok: In the morning I use 2 scoops in a 16oz. Unsweetened almond milk (each scoop has 25g. Protein) & then throughout the day I drink 4 more shakes but only 1scoop in an 8oz. Of Water so is this ok

You can put flavor in it just watch the sugar amounts. I drank vanilla protein shakes but I made it thru it. I am still drinking protein shakes 2 now until I eat enough protein . Just drink lots I am having trouble getting enough liquids. I am making sure today though pushing it thru. I am 17 days out and one thing I am working on is getting stamina back seem to get tired easy, I use to go forever hope once I go back to work it comes back fast. I will never be sorry I did this I feel better.

That's awesome & YOU CAN DO IT I believe on you just think of the little engine that could lol I haven't had my surgery yet I am waiting on to find out a date so I'll keep you posted so proud of you & congratulations on the NEW you

KSManatee: I love reading about your positive attitude. I am now 12 days away from my surgery, and I am just so grateful that I have come this far. Thanks for sharing!]

how much protein are you suppose to take-in in a day

You should be getting at least 50-60 from food and shakes.

Some told me a way to put flavor you take two teaspoons or tablespoons of sugar free jello powder you know before you make it. It adds great flavor and it's sugar free. Just an idea
