Recommended Posts

Well my surgery is in 8 more days and I am ready!! The only thing that I worry about is getting menstrual period on the day of the surgery or after because I always have horrible cramps but I am ready!!! I have eaten nothing but liquids and look at junk food as a thing of the past!! I am so focused right now its disgusting!! My sister asked me if I am going to be a Mess with all the weight off and I said No I am going to Be Blessed once the weight is off and there is a difference!! My life as I know it is going to start and loving me will continue to grow!!! I will no longer hurt :ph34r: myself to the worlds way of eating!!! :wub:

I wouldn't worry about the menstrual cramps because the post op pain medication should help with the cramps.

Don't worry about your cycle. Anesthesia always brings mine on, even if it isn't time. With everything that will be happening to your abdomen area, cramps won't even be noticed. And the good pain meds will knock them out.

Good luck with you journey!

Why would you be a mess? You're going to be fabulous! And as mentioned, if you do get your period, your lovely pain meds will certainly help you with those cramps! Good luck!

Don't worry about your period, that's not where they are doing the surgery. I was just finishing mine. Did not affect anything. Just remember the first few weeks concentrate on healing not so much on weight loss. Follow the liquids to soft stage to a tee. Good luck!!!!

Trust me, the wonderful drugs they give you will erase all of your cramps. LOL! I had surgery a few weeks ago. There are rough days but overall totally worth it for the outcome. I'm sure you will do great.

      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.
