Day One liquid diet

So far this day has been really difficult I have a migraine from hell and I think it's because I don't have what I need. I get my actual protein powder from my drs office tmr, but still decided to do the full 7 day liquid diet and I'm pretty sure I'm failing. I know once I get my binder with all my need to know info and my proper protein mix it will be easier. 

Hi TexasPrincess08. I hear ya. I started my liquid diet today too. Nothing worse than a hunger headache. I hear the diet gets easier as the days pass. All I can say is this will be a long 2 weeks. Good luck 

Thanks I'm glad mine is only a week couldn't do two

I'm trying to get started too, the protein powder makes me sick (whey protein) then tried soy. That gave me hives.

and yes the jones for food is that like a hangover from alcohol for me. Do you have any suggestions for a protein powder that you can mix with water and is not soy, or whey?

Hi LucyWong. There is a pea protein and hemp. Never tried either, but maybe one of them might help? http://www.shape.com/blogs/fit-foodies/get-scoop-protein-pow ders

I hear a lot about 2 week liquid diets before surgery... My Dr only wanted me to not way after midnight before surgery. I guess everyone is different. GOld luck

My doc wants me to do a 25-day liquid diet prior to surgery for a couple of reasons.  Mostly to try and take some weight off and shrink my liver before surgery.  My BMI is currently 55.2, and my personal goal is to get it under 52 by my surgery date (10/13).  I am not looking forward to this liquid diet thing.  I've been trying to ease into it this week, having a protein shake for breakfast or dinner, this week...but I dread 3.5 weeks of nothing but liquids.
