Anyone else have surgery on the 8th? I would love to have a surgery partner. I am so scared right now. My mother knows 2 people personally who died from bypass, 10-15 years ago. I didn't tell her until last weekend because I knew that she would be negative. I am 52 years old and want to live to see my grandchildren. I need to stop reading the internet and seeing horror stories! My husband, children, and best friend are supportive. I know she is scared for me, but I really need to be positive right now.

I woke this morning thinking tomorrow is the day, we will all do fantastic. Granni- you are lucky to be the first one on the schedule and lucky that you got a last meal :) When this all started it seemed to take forever but now is going so fast, I have lost weight extremely well on the pre-op liquid diet. The next journey is a good an permanent one. Today I will make a Protein "toast to Heath" for us all!

      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.
