Now! :) You should be doing plenty of walking, without overdoing it. No heavy lifting for 6 weeks - so no deadlifts at the gym ;)

I just called my doctor's office, the nurse informed me the treadmill would be fine but not more than 30 minutes for the first week. After that I could up it a little each time. Originally, they told me to wait six weeks but I am not losing - hit a stall. I told her I'm eating 800 calories or less a day and not losing, I need to exercise.

In fact, taking my lunch break (I work at home) and getting on the treadmill now.

      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.
