I havr my first appointment with my surgeon on August 2nd. It will be the 5th month of my supervised diet. I have lost 25 pounds already. I have my psyc eval s scheduled and I dont have to do a sleep apenia study either. I am getting excites but I found out that my husband will be deployed in October, but I don't know what day my surgery is going to be. I am hoping he will be here when it happens. I am nervous, scared, excited and ready to make this life style change. Any advice for a newcomer like me? Thanks everybody for being so supportive.

What worked for me was that I followed EXACTLY what my surgeon wanted me to do ... pre-op AND post-op.. I ate what I was supposed to eat, I exercised when I was cleared and have had no issues what so ever. Follow doctor's orders and you will be fine. Good Luck !

      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.
