The streamline surgical milk diet states 'semi skimmed'.
Will I get away with skimmed instead? I much prefer it!

I was told no, it is due to the *something* (protein??) in the fat of the semi milk so it HAD to be semi not skimmed

Can we put low fat low carb protein powder In the milk and can we have bovril as a low cal drink??

I was allowed 1 OXO cube a day, not sure about bovril, as T.K says its best to ask really as there seems to be so many different rules/diets.

Due to a cancellation I'm starting my milk diet now with a view to the op on 4th jan I need to make sure I get it right as I've over indulged the last few weeks and hope the 9 days they gave me is sufficient

I too had a cancellation and didn't have the full 2 weeks, some providers only require 1 week so it should be fine.

I don't think id be so worried if I hadn't ate and drank so much last week, I was actually having a pint when I got the phone call didn't know how quick to pour it out haha

I'd achieved the goal they set for me in April by July, had endoscopy in October where I'd had another decent weight loss, I was expecting date around March/April so had gained a little on the run up to Christmas but have lost that on this fabulous (haha) milk diet.This made me laugh. When did you do your 5% loss diet? Just wondering timescales. I'm starting the milk diet tomo

I asked that question and it has to be semi skimmed to give you the right cals. I didn't find it too bad in the end did 15 days was cancelled then did 12 days the next month.

Every provider has its own version of diet to enable you to lose weight and pre op. I'm under Luton and Dunstable and even tho I've done it before with my band which had to be removed, I had to prove I could lose 5% weight to see the surgeon. Then again pre op.
I have to drink 4 pints of semi skimmed milk, oxo by a drink, water, t coffee etc a day. One multi vit. Nothing else. This detoxes n shrinks liver n gives just enough nutrician . Approx 500 cals.
Hope this helps.
I have to say I feel great at the moment, rubbish removed from body
