How do I add you as my buddies! As time gets closer I need a buddy! I'm starting to get nervous and I think my husband is tired of hearing the questions and concerns. He is a marine so his view on life is things will happen and fall into place. This is one of those times I really don't want this advice. I want to talk... ;)

Mendy How are you doing on your pre op?

My pre op diet and post op instructions are completely opposite than anything I've read on here. My pre-op diet is to stop all carbonated drinks and up all Protein a week to 10 days before surgery. This decreases the liver size so he his firm with this instruction. My post op instructions was to start small amounts of Water immediately on the first day and blended food 3 times a day. My surgeon says that people do not live on shakes so all changes in life style starts an hour after the surgery is complete and not living on Protein Shakes.

He also performs the surgery with a voice activated robot and he does not agree with more than a couple of hours of down time. So I guess you could say he is aggressive but firm to his ways. I was also told to stay off these forums... Hehe;) but he doesn't have to know everything...

      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.
