I had my surgery on a Wednesday and went back to work the following Monday. It sucked. I wished I had taken a couple more days off.

Monsters80 please take as much time from work as you can afford. Two weeks would be most appropriate. Keep in mind that you are having major surgery, your body will be filled with gas, your stomach will go through serious traumA, you will be on clear liquid diet, which may make you light headed, I promise that its more likely then not that you will feel like you got hit by a truck. My nutritionist told me that I could go back to work the next day, I was so happy not to schedule myself on his recommendation. The best of luck to you.

Another thing don't push, pull or lift. No house work or anything that can cause you to slow your recuperation. It's all about "you healing".

      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.
