Protien Diet Anyone??



Recommended Posts

Oh no, I think I'm in trouble. I had my first liquid protien today. It is an EAS brand and Strawberries and Cream and it's so gross. I picked this one to have first as it sounded the best to me (I hate chocolate). It's not so much the taste but the smell! Such a strong Vitamin like smell. I'm wondering if it would be better if I bought some frozen strawberries and poured it into a blender and whipped it up or something. If they are all this bad, I'm in trouble! LOL Luckily I don't have to do the Liquid Protein diet for 2 weeks before surgery. Just need to up my Protein, watch my portions, nothing white like bread, rice, popcorn, etc.

day 3 was easier and day 4 (today) I am not hungry I just want to crunch on something...like an apple or cool crisp lettuce. I am dropping pounds. I will keep going. I went and got my nails done tonight to distract me from wanting to eat. My husband was laughing because everything on TV was ohhhh that looks so good, to me. Hey my nails are cute!:thumbup:

I soooo don't have any willpower yet...

My doctor doesn't require a pre-op diet so I'm doing it on my own. At first, I was going to do 2 shakes and a small dinner, but then I wanted to go all out since a lot of people can have nothing but the shakes. Last night, I was so hungry after work on my first day of the diet that I begged my fiance to let me have dinner, and I caved again tonight. But at least today I feel so guilty that I think I'm going to try again. Besides, the hunger during the day wasn't as bad today as it was yesterday. I'm hoping I can get through this, I really want to lose a little weight before the surgery!

First Protein shake this morning and it is utterly foul. I don't know how I am going to do this until the 13th. Not sure which is worse - the fake vanilla flavour or the Vitamin after taste!

I wonder if we can have soft drinks and coffee during all this? My birthday is the 7th and I do plan to eat a real meal that night. We're having people over. Other than that I am really going to give this a go. Wish me luck, I don't want to mess with my surgery!:laugh:

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
