I am out of surgery, and through the awful pains after surgery. I was sure I was going to die from that pain. But I'm doing well now. I still can't get much down, so I'm taking it very very slow. But I'm still positive about the whole experience.

Anything you would like to share, tips, recipes, advice... Would all be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi, I'm 5 days post-op. Glad to see you made it to the losers bench. I continuous sip all day. When I take my Protein Shake I walk around the house a time or two then take another little sip, whether mentally or physically, I just find that it helps and I get in some walking. So it takes me about an hour to drink the shake. Just keep taking tiny sips, it'll get better.

Congrats on making it through. I wasn't in any shape to post updates for the 1st 5 days post-op. Glad to hear your doing well.

Walk as much as you can, eat ice chips until you're allowed Water, and take small sips/bites until you learn how much you can hold.

      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...

        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.
