Surgery Scheduled!



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone!! I've been lurking around here for months while I've been going to all my appointments and getting everything ready for the big day. Finally, I've been told that I have the insurance approval and they've scheduled my surgery for Feb. 9th. I'm excited, hopeful and very nervous. My doctor doesn't require a liquid diet (except for the day before the surgery) but as I've been reading, a lot of doctors do require it... so I figured I start a liquid diet as well, just to make things easier for him during the surgery. I just wanted to say thanks to everyone for all the great posts. I have learned so much from all of you these last few months.

      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.
