Tomorrow is surgery day for me and I am all over the place with emotions today. Mostly excitement about the future me, but some fear of the unknown and the pain. Each step along the way has been a significant milestone for me in this journey towards a healthy lifestyle. The hospital should be calling me any time now to give me my time to arrive tomorrow and I am all packed, except my CPAP mask and toiletries.

Today has been the cleanse day with the mag citrate and surprisingly, it has not been as bad as I anticipated. I suspect that is because of the pre-op diet and no solids in my system. It has been 4 hours since I tool the mag citrate and so far, only two trips to the bathroom. :)

My next check in will be post op, whenever I am well enough to post.

@mswonderwoman.. Funny, took my cpap mask and they brought the machine into my room post op, but I didn't use it. I asked them if I had to use it since I wasn't sleeping much. I had too many gadgets on me anyway, one more would have driven me nuts I think. lol

      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.
