This is it guys! I have to be at the hospital in about 6 hours. I'm laying in my bed now trying to sleep but I'm far too anxious- combination of excitement and fear. Wish me luck all! Can't wait to be on the losers bench!

Thank you all! I was able to get a bit of sleep- fell into a deep sleep and when my alarm went off I almost didn't want to get up until I remembered what today was lol. Up now about to take a shower with the antibacterial soap the hospital gave me. I'll check in when I can! Thanks SO much everyone for the support!!

Just want to let everyone know I'm okay! I didn't have wifi at the hospital and my Internet connection wasn't good so I had to wait until I got home. The first two days were rough I'm not gonna lie. I was prepared for it but it still threw me for a bit of a loop. The pain was bad but the nauseous made it worse. Today was a LOT better. No nausea! So I was finally able to start eating and they saw I was okay to go home. The pain is still there but it's just very sore. There's a big dent and that's the most painful spot. The other ones are just tender. I know in a few more days ill be a lot better. That morphing pump was my BFF for a while lol. I was sad when they cut me off. Put me on Tylenol with codine now. I'm not hungry but I think there's trapped air in my sleeve because I keep feeling it contact and it hurts for a second and feel like I need to burp? It's going to take some getting used to lol.

Thank you all who showed me support, encouragement, messaged me- it means so much to me! Wanted to check and and let everyone know I'm ok!

      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.
