she told me that it's 4 per day but in some cases, they had to add a 5th boost in cases that you are weak.   I wouldn't take my word for it but I remember she said that if ever I felt weak to call them and they may add an extra one per day.

I did the slimfast for 2 weeks and I was weak and sleepy. I can remember not being able to sleep very well.And diarrhea oh yeah big time but if you consider what  you are consuming (only liquids) then diarrhea is to be expected. I settled down by day 6 and began to feel better. The diarrhea eased up some by then too. I'd ask the nurse though to be sure. The 2 week liquid diet is pretty brutal. real hard on the poor old body that is used to eating daily. Hang in there. You can do it!

Hello! 

I felt weak a little bit too. The first couple of days I had a headache and I felt weak but it has gone away. I lost fast like you did also, so don't panic. I lost a total of 20 pounds on this diet!

I was having a hard time going to the bathroom though, so that's different from me. You're doing great and you'll be fine :)

Keep us posted

I was not weak,But  The first couple of days I had a headache  I only lost 10bls,I lost the first week then did nothing the week after.But they said it is not to lose wait it is to strink your liver,And it did for me.
I was having a hard time going to the bathroom though, the 2 weeks I did not go untill 3 days after the surgery.so that's different from me. You're doing great and you'll be fine.
Iam finding the 2 weeks after very hard on just soup and juices,One more week to go then Iam on to puree can't wait as I want a meal right now.
Get the fist 4 days in and you should be good.

Oh Dear, what if you added some protien powder to your boost or ensure!  That might give you some energy!  I add one scoop to mine and I find it made a big difference. I think that is why when I tried (for the third time) the liquid diet, I finially made it to a whole week. I have to do it again the week before my surgery. I was even able to attned a water aerobic class and had lots of energy. You can try it, it cannot hurt. Hope this helps
