I have already lost the weight he required me to lose prior to Surgery, but he also wants the Liver to shrink as well, which is why I am trying to follow this anyway. I'll keep you guys posted. Have a great weekend!! :)Debihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09992977491095091038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2060129031400488769.post-3384248882252465492009-11-06T20:20:44.290-08:002009-11-06T20:20:44.290-08:00There is no rhyme or reason to it, I know.

It can be maddening, but it will come off eventually!Genhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11414571860592267584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2060129031400488769.post-26832729837548293282009-11-06T16:54:17.160-08:002009-11-06T16:54:17.160-08:00Thanks Robyn, I suppose it could be the liquids, b...Thanks Robyn, I suppose it could be the liquids, but maybe part of the reason you aren't losing right now is because of the swelling. I have read a lot of the bander's say that once the swelling went down, they started to lose? <br /><br />Or was it they lost a lot until the swelling went down, then got really hungry? LOL Let me know how it goes. I will definitely be checking your site out all the time now, especially since you will only be a couple of weeks ahead of me!!Debihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09992977491095091038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2060129031400488769.post-14409945564516169012009-11-06T15:56:25.674-08:002009-11-06T15:56:25.674-08:00I know from experience that some people just don&#...I know from experience that some people just don't loose on the liquid diet. When I did mine I got most of my 800 daily calories from the protein drinks and the rest from a low calorie meal. In the first day I lost 4 pounds. The following 9 days I lost like 2.5 pounds total (many days were no loss at all). I ended up going off it the last 3 days (the protein drinks were hurting my kidneys) and just eating high protein, low cal foods and lost over 4 pounds those last 3 days. My body just didn't do well with the drinks. Since my surgery 3 days ago I haven't lost an ounce. I think it might be because I'm only on liquids and clearly my body has shown that it doesn't respond well to just liquids.Robynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10103402883584954480noreply@blogger.com
