Help.....need ideas



Recommended Posts

Clean your teeth

Drink more water/tea/ etc. (whatever is allowed)

Look at a photo you hate of yourself at your biggest and visualise being healthy and slimmer and remember why you are doing this.

Get a buddy and ask for/give support

Remember this too will pass!

sleep more

Keep busy

Clean the house from top to bottom

Do all the laundry/prepare for surgery

Research post op eating plans, educate yourself why each stage is important including the cleanse

Treat yourself to a haircut/nails done

Cross each day off the calendar, countdown to surgery day

Get some fresh air, walk, visit family and friends.

Ask for support and help, we have all been there. You CAN do it :D

@@jrivers03 - I suppose you would need to check your individual plan but for most of us the liquid per-op diet consists of shakes, broth, sugar free popsicles, Jello, any sugar free liquid .

      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.
