My surgeon told me I could change my mind right up to the point where they knocked me out. I joked about it, but didn't chicken out and am SOOOOOO glad I went ahead.

Honestly, I expected every possible complication, lots of pain and every side effect. And I have had none of that. A little pain when I coughed while in the hospital, but after the first night really no pain after that. No nausea, no vomiting, no heartburn, no Constipation ( a little diarrhea which passed quickly). If I didn't have five small cuts on my tummy, and the inability to eat more than a little bit at a time, I might think the sleeve had never happened.

Just sayin' . . . don't expect the worst. Expect the best, because it could very well happen. Good luck!

6 months will go by quickly and give you time to get used to eating differently. Good luck and keep us posted!

      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.
