My surgery was done at 9:30am Monday morning, I was back in my room by 1:00PM and walking the halls by 3:00PM. It wasn't until the next day that I filled with so much gas I looked 9 months preg those next two days were not so nice. Today, I am felling good again thank God. I go back to work next Tuesday. I understand that not all people have a bad recovery time and I'm sure if I were 10 to twenty years younger it would have been better but I'm 50 so heeling was a little harder for me. Good luck for all the April bandsters.

      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.
