Honestly you are kind of lucky that you get to eat real food. Most liver cleanse diets consist of only liquid Protein and Clear liquids for a couple of weeks.

The first days are the toughest but I promise it gets better and yes it is absolutely worth it! For me by day 4 I did not even care anymore. Day 5 I was not even drinking all of the recommended liquids I could have.

Hang in there you can do this!

I don't envy you at all. I did a whole cabbage Soup diet only it was cabbage soup and more cabbage soup with a side of cabbage soup and for dessert, MORE cabbage soup! It was the WORST diet of my life and put me off cabbage for a good 10yrs. Seriously nasty stuff. I think I'd rather have to eat Jello, mainly because I hate jello anyway and I won't feel bad not wanting to eat Jello for the next 10yrs! haha

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
