Kim2BSlim Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 Bless your heart! I am going to "officially" start mine the end of this week. I hope I can do well. So far I have just been cutting way back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utahmom Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 Hi Manda, Sorry you are having a problem. Carolyn suggested I drink EAS Advantage, it has 17 g of protien and really keeps me full. I found SlimFast ok, but I was getting hungry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clynn Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Try carrying some Metamucil or other fiber caplets around and taking one or two when your stomach starts to complain. It will give your stomach something to do. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paula Bee Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Okay, my surgery is one week from today. I have been starving for two days. Also, the shakes (slimfast, eas) are causing me to have some indigestion. It is hard of me to even think of drinking one right now. I even had my lean cuisine at noon so that maybe I can face the eas protein shake at supper. I already took my fiber and a sugar-free popsicle. I may try some coffee, and if I still feel like I could eat a cow, I will go lie down until my hubby gets home. If I am lucky, maybe I will go to sleep. I have had a hysterectomy, so I am not premenstrual. If I eat my arm off, will that count as weight loss, or will the mass weight the same inside me? Just curious... you never know what a hungry person might do. I AM staying on the pre-op diet, but I am just hungry. bite marks on my arm, Paula Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
