I made it through surgery!! My surgery was scheduled for 1:00, everything went great. I do have some pain around my incisions but other than that I feel good. I did laps around the floor I was on once I was able to get up. I am feeling good - all in all. I will say I have had 2 c sections & my gallbladder out & I feel better right now than I did with either of these. Now the fun part begins! :)

Congrats!

It's good to hear about the painless surgeries as my time approaches.

Was there a lot of sitting around boring time or did they shoot you up and drag you off to surgery immediately then wake you up and send you on your way?

No I didn't have to be at the hospital until 11:00 (surgury was schedule for 1:00). I was called right back once I got there. There was about a 30 minute delay with surgery but my husband got to stay with me through that time. My doctor came out & said the person on front of me was hard to put to sleep so that put them behind. All & all it was very smooth. I left the hospital at 6:00. So I was there 7 hours.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
