but think of this... in those (quick) six months you will be going through a process to get ready for a life changing event. Read, learn all you can about your body, start exercising and get in to a routine now...it will make it easier for after surgery. Change your eating habits best you can, talk to people on here and get all the motivation.... there are some VERY successful people on this site and they know a LOT of good tips, ideas and really want to help.

The six months will go by fast, the spring is here more activites to be involved with all summer too... hang in there... this time is very important to your success! Good Luck!

The six months is actually a blessing in disguise. Use this time to start to change your eating habits slowly and start to get more exercise. I found that using this time to really work on the mind set helped esp in the first few weeks after surgery when things are a bit rough. We are here to support you and the time will go fast. Good luck and congrats on your decision.

The first three months feel like they take forever, but the last three go by in a blink. It's crazy.

      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.
