Okay, by now I assume you are curious about what this liquid diet entails. So, here you go:
The main requirements are to get between 90-120 grams of protein a day. Keep the carbs under 100 per day and stick with under 1300 calories.
Clear liquids are fine, as are protein shakes, l.f. yogurt, fresh or cooked veggies, l.f. cream soups, decaffeinated tea or coffee, skim milk, and my doctor said protein bars are also acceptable.
A typical day looks like this:
Breakfast- a vanilla protein shake mixed with pumpkin pie spice
Snack- s.f. Popsicle
Lunch- celery and l.f. laughing cow cheese, yogurt, protein bar
Snack: 1/4 cup of nuts, chicken broth
Dinner: sauteed mushrooms and steamed broccoli and cauliflower, protein bites
Snack: s.f. pudding, shake
This tallies up to about 900 calories, 60 carbs and 93 protein
