That was my most difficult part of this entire process, I need the crunch. I am assuming you are post operation? I know words don't always help but truly it will all come back and you will be fine. Soon enough you will be able to get your crunch and then weightless will be exciting. It's all worth it, that's why we did is.

I remember feeling this exact same way. I was just like, "Dear God, just give me something with texture ... anything ..." It was like my teeth were going soft and mushy like all the food I was eating. I was actually nervous the first time actually having to "chew" something.

Silly, but real.

This too, shall pass.

One time during my post op this happened to me. I chewed up something crunchy (can't remember what now) but then spit it out into a napkin....sounds gross but it helped the chew craving.

      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.
