Post surgery recovery was a lot more difficult than I anticipated, but now the only problem I have is that I am not sleeping through the night. I sleep for a few hours and then need to sit up for a couple hours. I ve lost 27lbs so far, but it's hard to be excited when your lacking sleep.

kss, can you ask your doc for a prescription to help you sleep or could you ask him if you could take the new liquid over the counter med made by nyquil but it is just for sleep.

I have really bad insomnia and have for many years. I take ambien every night. I sure hope I can continue it post op.

There may even be other things that can help, melatonin, (health food store) and I think there is a "sleepy time tea" But you need to check with your Doc. Sleep is very important part of healing. Hope you get some rest soon.

Thanks. I am honestly scared to take more drugs. I don't know if my stomach could handle it. I'm sleeping like 3 hours at a time. Seems to be getting better.

You sound like me when I got out of surgery my first three days were like why oh why. Well my surgery was August 2, I have lost 94 lb. and sleep about 5 hours a night but have so much energy now I feel like I am 21 all over again

      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.
