I'm just starting this journey. I went to the seminar in January and I have my dietician appt set up for next week. I'm hoping for a May or early June surgery. I'm getting very worried about the whole thing, I hope I can go through with it. :/

I am just starting the whole process, going to all my appointments. I am not sure if i have to do the 6 month wait or not but i have been preparing my self for the surgery. I have changed my diet and have been working out. I have to go see my doctor on April 29th and tell him what i have decided. But the doctor has me going to group meetings and a seminar, along with going and getting different tests done. I am nervous but excited at the same time. I have been trying for year to loose weight on my own and i have not been able to so i have came to terms that i need a little help. I have a amazing support with my family.

I'm just starting my process as well. I went to the seminar last week Saturday, and my first consultation with my surgeon is exactly a month away. I have my psychological evaluations week after that. My insurance does not require me to do the 6 months. I'm just nervous with anticipation having to wait a month to visit with my surgeon. Congratulations to everyone who are just starting their journey!!!

      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.
