Nervous is normal. Just sip and walk when you can once you are home. Congrats on your surgery!

Good luck! You will probably be pretty sleepy at first. I wasn't terribly sore the first 12-ish hours but once I woke up the morning after surgery I was pretty sore. It basically feels like you've done a LOT of sit-ups...but I don't say this to make you more nervous! Just make sure you keep moving and drinking Water :)

Know that the first couple days you may feel not 100%. Mainly because your insides have been knocked around some. it is normal. Achy and tired are normal.

Sip as much as you can. Remember sf popsicles count for sipping to.

And you may have a sore throat from the tube. Normal.

But it is sooooooooo worth a coupke days of just not yourself, because the next thing you know you feel better than your old self!!!

My surgery was 12/17. I'm down 25lbs.

      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.
