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. :)

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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
