6 days here too! And yes! I would LOVE a scrambled egg, or a some Soup or something not designed "to run through a straw" --- bleck! .....On the plus side I lost six pounds this week, so a pound a day :) Hang in there all.

I am six days today and feeling ok. I think I let myself get very dehydrated and Monday I started paying the price for it. Nauseous and very weak. I have been pushing fluids, well actually my mom and sister have been pushing fluids on me, and I am feeling much better ths morning. I finally feel like this was a good decision again. Man yesterday I was regretting the whole thing! I actually joked with my sister that if I died she had to find a way to bury me in the size eight skinny jean I brought before surgery! I will get in to those jeans somehow!

Whew, glad I am feeling better this morning. I will never understand why dehydration makes you nauseous, seems so counterproductive.

I am also 6 days post surgery and I hear you about the mushies. Yesterday was a bad day for me. I am on 2 bp meds and my bp fell to 79/57 and I was dehydrated. I hadn't had a bm since surgery and finally started the night before, it was diarhea and I think it added tothe dehydration. Ended up at the acute care of my health plan had 2 bags of fluids and had to lay on my back with my feet up to get my bp back up.I have to stop my bp for awhile but monitor it so it doesn't go up too high.

Today all is well, I feel great and counting the days to mushies.Hang in everyone, I see the light at the end of the liquid tunnel and it is bright!

      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.
