I am an official sleever. I spent 48 hours in the hospital. My incisions don't bother me at all. It is the gas and the air from drinking that is killing me. No regrets so far.

Congrats! The hospital had me up and walking every 2 hours to help w gas...when I went home, there was an expectation of continuing the "walking". 12 days later, I can finally sleep through the night w no gas pain.

Congraulations! I am a patient of Dr. Schuster and am pre-op. I'm just checking to see how others are doing after their surgery. I'm glad to hear you are doing well.

Sorry to hear about the gas. Maybe it's the air that they inflate your abdomen with when they do the surgery. It's like a balloon, that why it takes so long for it to be expelled. Some people get gas pains in their shoulders.

Good Luck and please keep us up to date with your transformation. :D

      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.
