Mine was completely different! I had to continue to loose weight (no specific amount) over the course of 6 months, then one day prior to surgery I have a liquid diet and a bowel cleanse...that's gonna be a fuuuun day:)

My Pre-op routine is a week of surgical scub from the neck down plus one day of liquid diet. It is strange how many different pre-op routines are followed. I am glad I diidn't have to do the month of liquid diet. What a nightmare.

I've seen on this group where ppl will make a list of all the ppl having surgery in a particular month...an August list should be made as ppl get their dates...I'd do it if I wasn't so computer challenged...lol

      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.
