I found out today that my surgery will be on Feb. 12. I am excited and nervous too. I am really nervous about the liquid diet. I am not a huge fan of Protein Shakes. :(

I'm February 12 as well... Don't worry about the pre-op diet (check with me in a week and see if I'm still saying that!!)- think about two months from now when we will be smaller versions of ourselves and that pre op diet will be a distant memory. :-)

Hey, when we're hungry we can meet up on here and chat about all the things we're going to do and wear when we're thin!

Good luck girls!!!

That sounds like a great plan. It would be nice to talk to people who are going through it at the same time. Where are you located? I'm in San Antonio, Tx.

Oh wow! That's cool! My doc is Dr Pilcher from New Dimensions. I really like him. Are you going to be at Foundations Hospital?

Unfortunately no. I will be at NE Baptist on Village Drive. I was going to be at Foundations but bc the doctors won't be available the last week of February it was either take the 18th as my date or wait until March 4th. I'm with Texas Center for medical and surgical weight loss.

      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.
