Hello... New to site!



Recommended Posts

Got my approval for Bypass on 12-30-2013. I meet with the surgeon on the 22nd. I'm excited and nervous at the same time. I've been a little overwhelmed trying to get everything I need. So glad I found this forum!!

Went well! Very little pain. Having a hard time getting in enough calories (never thought I'd ever say THAT pre-op!). I've lost 14 lbs since I started my liquid diet (1 week pre-op). You'll do great!

Wow 14 lbs that's awesome!! I'm super excited! Hopefully I'll only have to do a week on the liquid diet pre-op.

Thank you! The liquid diet is really hard the first 2 days. I thought it got much easier after that. 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.
