I'm four weeks post surgery, down almost 20lbs since surgery day. I feel almost normal, it's awesome. I can eat whatever I want (but don't because, seriously, bread & Pasta just fill me up without any protein). I stick to Protein and veg and Protein Shakes.

I can drink Water but only with a LOT of Ice (or it makes me nauseous). I can gulp 3-5 gulps at a time.

Eating is still trial and error... I think I'm not done and then I'm too full and it's uncomfortable.

I quit my antacid pills last week and I haven't needed them.

My energy is normal, I have no pain anywhere.

My total weight lost since 4/8 is almost 30lbs and two ladies in the lunch room noticed today, which was nice :-)

I just thought I'd give a little update to those of you about to have surgery or at the very beginning :-)

I'm at 5 weeks post op down 41 lbs but not doing as good as you are on the food. I used to drink a lot of Water now I can't stand it. Everythi g I eat or drink is making me feel like puking. I know it will get better and yes I love the results so far.

      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...

        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.
