6 weeks, but I chose to wait an extra month due to a scheduled cruise. Not to eat, but in case I had trouble with the fill. I only gained 1 lb on the cruise.

True results here. I'm scheduled for next Thursday. That will put me 4 weeks out. I stopped losing as soon as I started on mushy food. I am not starving but I can eat probably more than I should, not that I do though.

  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...

    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.
