Then 2 high protein slim fast shakes. Then to make up the difference, I have purchased the special k, protein mix that goes into water, it has about 5 grams. Mean while, I have the option to drink all the water, sugar free jello, sugar free popsicles, crystal light, chicken or beef broth, or blenderized soups. Maintaining my calorie intake to 800-1000 cal a day. The doc said that if I have not lost any weight, then he would stop the surgery and reschedule, so I have to do this. There is no other option for me. So, today is day one. Im really hoping that I have the will to do this for a month, 2 weeks prior and 2 weeks after. Good luck guys.
You will do just fine. I also have to do the two weeks before and the two weeks after but I am only going to take one day at a time. I am not very worried about the two weeks after surgery...yet...atleast I hope for the first few days I won't really feel hungry so I hope that helps me...
