Need some support!

I did the 2 week liquid diet from Dr Dyer also. The yogurt I ate was the Yoplait Light. The list says No sugar added, not Sugar free. You wont find any that are sugar free completely just stay away from any that have chunks of fruit in them. They do give you some protein and they help "fill" you up. The liquid diet gets better after about day 4. I just kept my mind busy doing things and I didn't think about food. If you get 3 EAS shakes a day your lucky I was only allowed 2. I also hated the broth so that was even less of a variety I was eating.

Good luck! You will get there :)

I must admit, I did the Last Supper Syndrome for 3 weeks.  I gained ELEVEN pounds before my surgery.  Someone told me that I would NEVER have those foods again, and you know... I BELIEVED THEM.  Whoever told me that crap was full of it....  I do regret that because, I could have reached my goal a little sooner, maybe 3 weeks sooner, had I not gained that stinking 11 lbs!!

Hang in there, sis!  You CAN do it! 

If you have a Kroger near you they sell something called Carb Control Yogurt, it has 3g of carbs, 2g of sugar and 12g of protein in a 6oz. container. It tastes great too!

Yes the CarbMaster yogurt...  I live on it now.

When I do my shopping for two weeks, I buy like 25 of them at a time!

I have to make sure that I go at a time that someone has not been there before me and bought them all out.  They are a GREAT source of protein and very low in carbs, sugar and calories.

I know where you are comming from.I had to do the three week diet as well.I started on June 30th on up until I had my surgery on July 20th.It was hard for me about the first 4 days then after that I got use to it. I got the Body fortress Protein shakes and started mixing it up with sugar free pudding and sugarfree flavored syrups so that helped me a lot.By it being hot I would also put it in a blender with chopped ice and make it into a smoothie if you will and that was good.Sugarfree popsicles and Jello.My doctor allowed us to eat one sensible meal at dinner time but it had to be a small meat and only green veggies.I got faith and confidence in you.You can do this.Do not give up.We are all here for you. YES YOU CAN do this!!!

Thanks guys!! I went and got some yogurt this morning now since I know it is no sugar added light, not sugar free. Today seems to be a better day thanks to all my friends out there! You  all are a blessing.

YOU WILL BE FINE. THE LIQUID DIET  IS HARD BUT SO WORTH IT. YOUR SURGERY IS ON MY BDAY. GOOD LUCK.

We have a support group that meets every month here in Fayetteville.  There are 4 who had RNY and 2 who had Lapband.  We're making the rounds of the local restaurants.  Melinda, Tim, Jen, & Brian came down last Nov and met us at Las Trojas.  We are meeting on the 15th at Marvin's @1200 if you would like to join us.  I realize that this month might not be the best time since your're doing the liquid diet.  I will post the monthly meetings here so you can join us later on. 

I am a patient of Dr. Dyer also and I have done my 2 week diet, I have 4 more days left. I cried and slept the first 2 days. I could not drink the AES protien shakes either , they are awful! I am drinking the unjury chocolate 2x a day. I called and asked if I could and they said yes if I use water. So , I blend it with water( or sometimes skim milk because I could have 8oz. of milk on my list of things to drink every 2 hours) and ice like a smoothy .Food lion has no sugar added yoguart in Food lion brand. They only have Strawberry and Strawberry Banana. I put a few in the freezer and then when I ate them , tasted like a frozen dessert. They get rock hard but , something different . I can also have juice so I  drink  tomato juice cause it is so thick and makes me feel full . I have cheated a few times , nothing awful , I have licked a spoon here and there but I lost 13 the first week. It is so hard for me because of the 3 kids I have to cook for. It is the hardest thing to do ........not eat ! You are right , every other commerical is about food! Never noticed that until I was starving! ha!Hang in there , you kind of get use to it and it does get a little easier.~shell

I am going to try the AES in another flavor, and maybe over ice. I opened up one of my chocolates this morning and it was all nasty looking, even after I shook it. The yogurt has been helping, I have been freezing it also, even though it is no chocolate chip cookie dough it is pretty tasty!! Good luck to you I will be praying for you! I tried weighing myself but I am stull over the amount for my scale. Hopefully by the end of the week I will start registering. I will be happy then!!
