You just have to beleive in yourself and that everything will be just fine. Follow all the directions to the letter and you should be fine! I am scheduled for Monday Aug. 4th as well. I am sure we all have the same fears. We just have to push through them. I have been very lucky to have my friends, family and co-workers cheer me on. But if they didn't it wouldn't matter to me because I am doing this for me and my health because I want to live a long life and that is what truely matters the most! Good luck!

The surgery can be scary and all support is welcome. I really loved being on Instagram in the days after surgery but then I didnt find this forum yet..... I did have some complications but had wonderful nurses and doctors who supported me and if you would ask me now... I would do it again! The first days may be painful but just do this for yourself, because YOU want it! It is soooo worth it.

Hi I'm feeling ok but extremely weak. Surgery went as it should. I still feel very weak. Had check up today and that was good. I can start eating soft food. Hope that helps. Thanks for asking

      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.
