And feeling great! Surgery went well. I've been up walking the halls and doing my breathing exercises. No pain, no nausea - maybe they forgot to take my tummy out??!) Nurses are amazing and so are Dr Aceves's staff.

Thanks to all the rock stars on this board for the support, encouragement and information!

Oh, BTW, I asked Dr A how my liver had been and he said it was fine, no problems (NOT looking to start a debate on the lack of pre- op dieting again thouhgh ;)

I feel like I've been In a zoo the last few hours! Woke up feeling like a small horse had kicked me in the chest but fortunately the very foxy looking nurse came and made it all better. Then when I started drinking my Water and blue dye I was burping like a piggy! But oh boy did it feel good :)

Spirits are good, no regrets, looking forward to the rest of my life!

      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.
