I was told to wait over 4 months for salad, as for bread my surgeon does not recommend it until you reach goal.

Bread is my downfall so I will keep the heck away from it!

I was ok'd for salads at 2 months also. I love salad! I missed it so much for those 2 months. I'm not allowed bread til 6 months and even then I plan on keeping it to a bare minimum til I get to goal. I'm 3 1/2 months out.

I am 3 months out and cannot tolerate either bread or salad. Lettuce is the only food that makes me feel like I am going to vomit. Bread is just too heavy. I was cleared to eat raw veggies at 3 months.

salad was the only food I mourned for after I had surgery. I could eat cooked veggies but the raw ones took a while. @ 15 months, they still are slow digesters for me. I pretty much stay away from bread but when I do eat some I either have Orowheat Winter Wheat bread or I use the multigrain sandwich rounds. They're great as a substitute when I make my half a hamburger.

      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.
