Surgery 8/1, Dreading Pre-Op Diet And New App



Recommended Posts

Mine was cancelled from yesterday to possibly the August 14th, if I get better and asthma under control! To think, I was this close to having it done. Oh well things happen for a reason.

Hey guys, just thought I would check in, My surgery went well too, the doctor actually said the word beautifully. Recovery is recovery, I am sore and stiff and a little grumpy. My stomach is also growling but it is like it is in a foreign language now. I have no idea what it means

Well, you are beautiful, and he's as art man to notice! I am with you on the growling, I have no earthly idea how to figure out what my tummy needs. I think it will just be trial and error in figuring it out. It reminds me of when my first son was born; he would scream and cry and I would keep trying things until he stopped. That's how it is for me and my new baby tummy. I think I'm starting to be able to figure out what some of the rumbles mean.

How are y'all doing with liquid and Protein? ?? My mission today was to work hard at getting my numbers in. So far I'm at 26 grams of protein and 50 oz of liquid. Yesterday my numbers were horrible, due to swallowing issues an painful gas. I'm now counting down the days until I get to move to full liquids!!!! 3Days!!!

I know what you mean about getting all the liquids in I was so proud of myself today I finished a 16oz water bottle in 2 hours. The Isopure is a little harder to drink as fast.

Here's to a better tomorrow.

Mt stomach is still talking to me in a different language. but the good news is I only really have to use my pain medicine at night. Laying down s still pretty uncomfortable. I know I am not taking in my full amount of Protein. Water wise I am golden, I sip on it all day. Moving around is better too, but it is easy to over do it. It is like one minute I am fine and the next I am over my limit and dead tired.

      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.
