First appointment



Recommended Posts

I am going to my first appointment tomorrow. I was told to expect to be there for 2 hours, to fast, and no caffeine for 24 hours. I know I have to do a 6 month diet. I know I will have blood work tomorrow. Not sure why I am not to have caffeine for 24 hours?? Any ideas what my first 2 hour appointment will be like??

My fist appointment is Tuesday, it's only supposed to be an hour, and I don't have any restrictions. It will be interesting to hear back from you or others as to why your appointment is different. Good luck!!

Maybe the caffeine may not give accurate taking on your blood worj, but good luck with your appointment.

The reason for no caffeine for 24 hours is because likely they will do an EKG. Caffeine can skew those results.

My appointment was good. I couldn't have caffeine because of a metabolic rate test. But the machine did not work and got no results. I am going back tomorrow to see dietician. My 6 month wait will start tomorrow - when I start diet plan.

      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.
