Interesting question here.

So I had my surgery a week ago and started on full liquids today. And all day whenever I eat something I start to get dizzy. Has this happened to anybody else?

Yes, probably to most. Your body is just in shock! Anything in your tummy at this point is very hard for your body to handle. This is normal...no worries. The first two weeks were very difficult for me. It WILL get better. Just take it REALLY slow. Sip, sip, sip. Hang in there! :)

Agreed - it happened to me for the first 2 weeks, in varying degrees.

Okay, that sounds good. I just wanted to make sure that nothing was wrong! I can stick it out if I know it will go away!

Hi-

I was getting aweird flushed feeling when I first started to have full liquids and when I graduated to mushies. Your stomach is a major organ and is taking up a lot of resources in your body right now. I remember feeling like all the blood in my body was rushing to my stomach after I ate to help with digestion. It gets better over time.

      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.
