Im post op day 9! I have moved to pureed/soft food stage ( thank God! ) the first couple days was an adjustment. Every time I sipped on my Water or took my meds my stomach would spasm. Which hurt. The dr did prescribe something for that and it has since settled down considerably. The only other pain I had was the incisions. That was more of how I sat or trying to be comfortable in bed. I still have some trouble getting in my Protein and water but its getting better! Boy who would have though that getting in thay stuff would be so hard!!! Literally I feel like I'm constantly having to think about it lol glad I'm off from work!!

      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.
