Hey

Today was the BIG (no pun intended) day.

Thinking of you and may you recover well. As soon as you can, let us all know you made it through.

Best wishes.

Kristie

Thanks! Sorry I disappeared -- this experience has been INTENSE and I'm just now starting to feel human again. I'm exhausted, though, and need to nap a lot. The first four days were the worst, then from day 5 through about day 7, I transitioned from deep inner wound pain to outer itchy wound pain. I'm 12 days post-op already! And I'm very glad to be on the other side.

Thanks, everybody. I'm feeling pretty good. Yesterday, though, I started feeling a pain (more like discomfort) on my left side above the bottom left portal wound. I think it's just deep muscle pulling/healing -- it's like something in there just woke up. I'm going to call my doctor about it today, though, because it's kind of freaking me out.

I'm great! Thanks for asking! I'm 10.5 weeks out, losing an average of 4 - 5 pounds a week, pretty much have the hang of things and feel fantastic. Your surgery's in February?

Hey Kristy, hoping all is well with you.

      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.
