Hi everyone, I had a little hiccup during surgery. The hospital I went to ordered a smaller tip guide so during the surgery the doctor snipped the tip off. It took him an extra 45min to find it. Thank god it was in the cut out portion of my belly. Everything else has been great. I was up and walking the day of surgery doing lap after lap around my ward. I got to go home the next day. Just having a hard time getting enough fluids down. The doctor wants 13 cups of clear fluids per day. I walk laps around the house, drink as much as I can then nap. This is pretty much how it has been since I got home. Hope to be able to get more fluids in soon.

That's wonderful, congratulations on finally getting it done!! You must feel such a relief, I can't wait till I'm there too, tomorrow is my pre op :)

      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.
