Surgery August 8th going crazy



Recommended Posts

So my surgery is just about a month away. I am supposed to be practicing chewing and on no carb low fat diet. I did ok the first week but I am slowly cheating with things that I feel I have to have because I will not be able to have them later.....I am also getting anxious and doubting my decision to do this. Anyone out there experience this. Hoping to do well on the 3 week before surgery liquid diet to shrink liver...please help!

I cant totally relate. My surgery date is August 4th. I start my low carb diet on July 21st. But they told me to go ahead and be practicing chew, chew, chew. That's hard for me. I practically inhale my food sometimes. I have to make a conscience effort to chew slowly and thoroughly. I'm excited about surgery though, seems like an eternity till August!

The day before I was to start my pre op diet I actually had a food funeral at work. Everyone brought all of my favorite foods and I ate like a mad woman. Lol It was, at least in my mind, my time to put to rest old habits and start a new beginning with healthier choices.

I'm having trouble chewing and sipping. I down loaded the eat slower app and it seems to help. My surgery isn't till sept. I hope

      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.
