I have to admit I haven't done much since surgery. I had a ton of nausea, was lightheaded, and just plain felt like crap! I've been telling myself to suck it.. So far so good. Lol. Anyway.. Protein Shakes are a complete turnoff. I want to gag just thinking of them. I haven't had a lot of fluids either, all things I'm focusing on today whether I like it or not. I just want to eat real food, but know I'm not allowed yet. :(

Ps.. Lost 9lbs and actually got a little nervous. Lol

It gets better! (I'm 3mos post) I really couldn't get Protein till time 2-3weeks out. It was so heavy in my stomach, an i felt like it was sitting in my chest, I had to force them down. Keep up the good work!

Iso[ure Protein Shakes are much lighter. You may want to give them a try! I hope you feel better soon! Hang in there and don't loose hope!

It won't be long before this is behind you. Keep reminding yourself this is a blip on the timeline of life.

      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.
