day one of liquid protein diet

well I have made it through day one of the liquid protein diet and I have to say quitting food is almost as hard as it was quitting smoking lol but I tackled that so hopefully this will be a breeze it wasnt as bad as i thought now I only have 13 days to go until surgery woo hoo now if I could just lay down and sleep through the next 13 days it would be perfect lol na I will make it has anyone else started one yet or does anyone here have to go on one before surgery? talking through things is always good also today I went to vitamin world for the first time and I actually found liquid calcium citrate they have it in 7 different flavors of course I got pina colada lol and I got a new protein shake it is called whey gourmet protein powder and it tastes like a orange dreamcycle it is awsome and it has 24 grms of protein per serving well just making nervous conversation I am off to bed now chat later Cindy

I only have a 2 day clear liquids diet and bowel prep. Good Luck!

Cindy, I started my liquid diet today. I pray for strength and will power for the next 13 days. Where did you get your dreamsicle protein powder and the liquid calcium? What daily vitamin have you chosen? Luann

well I got mine at vitamin world and they had the liquid calcium citrate they have it in other flavors I think they have like 7 diff flavors and I got my dreamcycle protein shake there also it is a 2 lb container and I think it was around 25 with the discount and the liquid calcium citrate was like 11.49 before the discount hope this helps I also get the protein powder from walmart which is called premium whey protein by body fortress it only comes in choclate and vanilla but tastes pretty good and a 2 lb container is only 11.96 it is in the pharmacy section of the store good luck if you need to talk look me up or e-mail me at [email protected] Cindy P.S I got the centrum liquid and I got b-complex liquid from walmart but vitamin world has them both in liquid and chewables as well and I heard the ones from vitamin world taste better too

Well keep in touch and good luck my prayers are with you. Lori 26days

well it is not as bad as I thought it would be I have been drinking some chicken or beef broth today and it has helped the protein shakes I have are sweet and throwing something in there a little flavorful and salty really helps not eating food and also I went yesterday evening and bought some sugar free popsicles those help in the fact you actually feel like you are eating something good luck and keep me posted Cindy
