I have surgery in the morning. Wow, I had my mom take some before pics (I will post when I'm comfortable, I promise!) I cried looking at them. Not looking for sympathy and I'm sure everyone here can empathize, but I'm so ashamed of what I've done to my body. I had pics taken with clothes on and clothes off. I did not realize that I had gotten so heavy. I'm glad I took the pics tonight because I was so nervous about tomorrow but seeing these photos I know I'm more afraid to continue on the way I have.

I did the same thing, Girl! Only difference is, I set my camera up to take the pics on auto....wasn't letting anybody seeing me! LOL. I'm planning on taking monthly pics in the same bike shorts and sports bra so I can see the difference.

We are gonna rock this sleeve, Girl!

Luck, Hugs and God Bless!

24 hours out! Feeling better than i did yesterday. I have only tried Water and ice chips so far and they make me feel extremely full, so im scared to try more. Gas pain was what everyone said it was horrible. But walking and gas x strips seem to be doing the trick. Just waiting in the doc to come see me and I should go home today. My doc doesn't do any external kind of leak test. Is that normal?

I am still preop but the doctor I have said they do the leak test while I am still under anesthesia so they can fix it if necessary

I'm two weeks out and I didn't have a leak test. Congrats to you. The first week was the hardest this second I started feeling normal again.

Congrats to you! I am still pre op but my surgeon said they will do a leak test, think while I'm still under..perhaps they did that for you. Blessings and much luck to you on your journey!

      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.
