I was told by my surgeon that as long as i feel comfortable to go for it. He said a week or two...i kind of scared because i have to go off BC two weeks before and then three weeks after i can start it again.

I was told as soon as it was confortable, for me personally that was about 2 weeks.

10 days was all I could handle it. My husband is super gentle and he did not hurt me at all. It was great :) my Dr. says whenever you feel comfortable, that comes sooner for some people.

I was told to wait for 40 days. I have read that others have done it sooner but the doctor want to make sure that I didn't do any movement that could cause any problems. So we wait for full sex and I just did my part to keep him happy. I know TMI. I just want you to know that it was worth it because I went back in with a very bad infection and then I got my period. So by the time we did it I was 30 lbs less. Since then he can not keep his hand off me.

I waited 10 days and then couldn't take it. I think seeing myself losing all this weight has made my confidence a lot higher and I have been much "happier to see him" lately than I was before.

      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.
