Oh and glad to know my favorite foods aren't gone forever, I think I was going to binge eat for the first time like a chipmunk saving for the winter. I don't want to go back to my old eating habits but I certainly want to be able to have a glass or sip of wine occasionally, a taste of ice cream once in a while...little things

So I had the psych evaluation and met with the Nurse today, so far so good. I'm getting cleared. But the hospital won't let me schedule a surgery date until I take my final class on Feb 17

I'm with you on all of that! I'm going next Tuesday to see my surgeon for the first time, and we will begin the process! I'm hearing different things about what I will have to do for my insurance to cover, 3 month or 6 month supervised diet, so until I know more, I'm in limbo! It's nerve-wracking and exciting. I just want to get started so I can get living again. And the part I dread? The excess skin! Ugh

. I've worried about that excess skin myself!!!! I'm looking things up daily trying to formulate a plan for that.

I remember waiting for that insurance call.. And I got it last Friday (whoop) but now I'm waiting for the call to schedule the surgery and that wait is probably worse than my insurance clearance wait. All tests are done, just waiting on the date ...

I feel the same way... Ever since they called and told me 'we got your approval and sent it to he surgeons office, they should be calling you within the week to schedule the date' I haven't slept well at all! I'm nervous too, and I feel like I want it to hurry up and get here but also I don't wanna rush it... I'm in such a weird mental space right now. Very anxious.

I once talked to a plastic surgeon who told me that wearing spanks would actually help. I don't know about everywhere else but I'll try anything.

Honestly, the 6 months is a breeze. I wasn't told to go on a diet. Just read labels and keep a food diary and turn it in at every class. When to start Vitamins and kick caffeine.

      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.
