4 weeks and 4 days. Apparently that's to be magic #! Last night my baby girl and I figured out a way for me to get in the pool without hurting myself. I just lounged in the Water for about an hour and a half. It was so lovely. When I got out all my muscle pains were gone. No sharp pains in my abdomen. No intense soreness in my back. It was heaven. I was cautiously optimistic since I swam in a friends pool 2 weeks prior and though it took away the pain for that moment the pains returned within an hour or two. But I laid on my stomach/side last night. Oh sweet comfort! sleeping on my back for a month was misery:) I didn't take any pain meds muscle relaxers. Downside to that is my body is so used to being knocked out that I think I slept 15 min of every hour and I'm exhausted this morning. I "got up" this morning and still no pain. I am sitting up straight, able to bend over and not calling for help to getty shorts on;) Could it Be? Could the pain finally be gone? My mind says try and drive today. But then I think don't push it:) But for now I'm just going to enjoy not hurting and hope it lasts!

That's awesome! You should definitely plan on returning to the pool as a preventative. Sometimes forcing yourself to relax like that is enough to loosen those tight muscles.

      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.
