Excited but scared
I am scheduled for surgery on 1/10/08 and the doctor told me to lose some weight prior to surgery to help shrink my liver. If I gain anything he will cancel the surgery. I am trying very hard but don't seem to be losing anything. I am drinking two shakes a day and eating a high protein dinner. I am excersing but not as much as I should. Can anyone help me with ideas to lose quicker. I am not starving but have cravings. So far I have not given in to them.
Help!!!!!!
I am on three shakes a day, but what helps with the cravings and hunger is the protein powder itself, not the shakes. I add about 15gr of wey protein to each shake sometimes more and it really fills me up a lot better. Surgeon recommended 60g of protein a day, I tried to eat that with regular food and found there was no way to eat that in a day, so you really need the supplement. I have lost 2kg and this is only day 4 of the preop diet. the wey protein is available at a lot of bodybuilding websites. Hope this helps.
