I just had my endoscopy today and it went well, it really is simple and painless. Feels like your taking a nap for sure and no pain afterwards. Scariest part for me was being put to sleep cause I get paranoid lol

I use a cpap machine already so the only thing I had to do is be in compliance of using it so if you have one or are put on one be sure to use it daily and they will require you to bring it to the hospital when you have surgery to use afterwards

How did everyone do with their preoperative appointments? Was there any issues? I'm getting ready to have my endoscopy and sleep study done and I'm a little nervous.

I have my sleep study appointment in Tuesday. I had my endoscopy and it went just fine. Good luck!

I'm in Austin I was sleeved on Thursday Nov 5th. Everything is going well. First two days were toughest. Surgery was outpatient. I'm home sipping on broths Soups Water popsicle etc. They did a hernia repair and that keeps me with fits of hiccups but other than that I'm good. Walking a lot. Haven't taken any pain meds since Saturday morning.

      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.
