So tomorrow is the big day. Have to be at the hospital by 9 and surgery is at 11.

It's finally hitting me.

After years of trying. Years of the doctor telling me to go trough with this surgery and never having the strength to say I can't do this on my own... It's finally here.

I'm so nervous I've broken down crying so many times I've lost count.

I have a great support system but I'm scared if I can do this. Will I fail? Will I awake in the recovery room? Will I be able to make it mentally through the next few months as my body transitions and my mind wraps around the fact that I can never go back to how I was. Will I like, even love, the new me?

Sorry for the venting.. I just need to get this off my chest.

Fingers crossed everything goes okay.. Fingers crossed I can keep my mind in the right mind set.

Here goes... New year new me.

      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.
