day 4 of liver shrinking. Going pretty well. the only issue is i have real difficulty bringing myself to consume (eating is a bit of a stretch) all three Protein shakes. my plan is this

Breakfast shake

Midmorning snack fruit

lunch shake

Mid afternoon Unsweetened fat free natural yoghurt (i call it joy-free yoghurt)

dinner (I'm all about dinner lately) is lean Protein, 50 grams of carb 150 grams of veggies and 150 grams of salad greens.

Evening snack is another flaming shake.

All washed down with two whole litres of Water

the only thing i am having issue with is the third shake. I can't bring myself to eat it and lose the memory of the nice dinner i had as my most recent meal.

How is everybody else doing with their protein supplementing? Is it doing things for you or does it have a long "whey to go"???

I am so glad it is finally done. It has been a long time coming, but things moved quickly once I finally decided this is what needed to be done. I am still sore (had the sleeve and hernia repair ), and have yet to sleep in my own bed (I've been in the recliner) but I feel a little bit better every day. I started at 330, was 300 on my surgery date and have lost 7 pounds since surgery. I have had no complications.

Thanks for asking. I know you will all do great and we will all be each others biggest supporters.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
