I must admit this is a little harder than I anticipated. I had terrible nausea and dry heaves for the first day and a half. Now I am just working with the acid reflux and sleeve spasms. Please tell me it gets better!

Sweety, it gets better. focus on yourself only. take small sips don't worry so much about the Protein, walk a little bit, sip. I'm 10 days out and I still am tired, I'm still sore, but I got the drain out yesterday and am already feeling like I'm crossing some hurdle. I questioned my decision once a day since the day after surgery. Day 1 I was a rock star, I walked like 5 times, day 2 was my hardest day. For the next week or so you are going to have ups and downs, just bear with it and it will get easier.

Yes things will get better - really they will -

But you now have a life sentence with the sleeve. But don't worry, the life will be good.

This is a totally new style of living, and eating. The expression "Live to eat" or "Eat to Live" is very true. I used to be in the first catagory.

Life will change for you - and you will be healthier and feel better, and getting a little slimmer is a plus too.

take care

best of luck

      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.
