I just can't wait to be photographed, weighed, traced and squeeled at! Monday seems really far away right now. I'm kinda scared but mostly just hungry. I'd give almost anything for an egg roll from that little place down the street. I auppose ill never eat another egg roll again. Lol...Going to bed. Hungry. Again.

What do you mean photographed? Do the doctors take your pictures for before and after to share with other patients? omg, I hope not!

The day I signed the surgery consents the nurse took my before picture for my chart. I am sure they will only show other patients if you sign a consent for that.

My program took a before pic at my very first appt. It's in my personal file, not to be seen by any other patients. They also took my measurements. That said, I'm on day 12 of my pre op diet. I'm perfectly ok with never having another vanilla or chocolate shake again. Tuesday can't come soon enuf, that's my big day.

I agree. I'm luck I really like the shakes, I hope that continues after surgery. Getting ready for my last pre op! Getting nervous

      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.
