Go easy on buying a lot of Protein shakes. After 2 weeks of Protein Shakes before surgery (my doctor makes you do a two week liquid reduce the liver diet before surgery) and then 3 weeks of Protein Shakes after surgery -- I can't even look at them and frankly my assets are in liquid shakes right now.

I wonder if I can sell them on craigslist or ebay????

[bubbly78 1]

Im sure you can sale them on craigslist, or Amazon I went to amazon to look for some but prices were similar so I just stuck with Original website..Thanks everyone for all the tips..Im so excited, nervous, everything, gonna miss my family..It will be worth it, im leaving this morning, I will be checking in...

Ok I arrived everything went really well, I got to airport, within minutes picked up, went to hospital for testing which was really fast, , got blood drawn, ekg, and xray talked to Doctor, anestegiologist, got a large amount of important information from one of the assistants, I am so horribul with names..All is well everything was so smooth I have never had such great service, ate dinner by myself felt like a queen, service here is not what I normally receive..

My pain was gone in about 5 days after the surgery. I am not sure why you are still having pain. I felt so great when I got home.

After the first 10 days. So starting the 2nd 10 days is when you can have the Premier Protein drinks if that is what you are talking about.

Hi

You are going to have some talks with yourself about all the food. I have said many times about how hard the 1st month is. This is part of it dealing with the food. You just have to tell yourself that this is only for 30 days--NOT A LIFETIME. It does get better the 2nd 10 days. Food will come back into your life the 2nd months. You NOT LONGER LIFE TO EAT. From here on out you

eat to life. You have to find things to do to keep the food in 2nd place not be the only thing you are thinking about. Take a magazine out and plan on some new clothes that you will be able to have. Do a little day dreaming about what it is going to be like in 6 months,

Hugs,

Suzanne
