That's my date too! I met my surgeon and they gave me a date for two weeks later!

I'm on day three of the Optifast shakes. I've given up caffeine too so I'm about ready to rip someone's head off and beat them with the soggy end.

August 23rd. Had to go through six month medically surprised weight program first and all the other hoops. I can't wait! Not looking forward to the two weeks prior. Can't imagine being on liquids for two weeks. Blegh.

Just sent a request to join the fb group.

August 24th! One more week before I start my two week Optifast diet. I've stocked up on the shakes and am ready to go, can't wait!

I'm telling very few people, mostly because I'm quite a private person, but it'd be great to have a buddy or ten. I'm in Australia if that makes a difference.

Me too :-) 8/24

I am 3 days post op and doing great! I was so so nervous prior to surgery, but I'm telling you all, it wasn't as bad as expected. Pain equatable to having gallbladder removed. I'm still bloated looking, but I've went down from 242 to 229 since I started the preop diet. I love this page!!

LOL. Oh dear. Well I actually lucked out. My surgeon doesn't believe in starving us. Thank you, Jesus. He just put is on high Protein, no starches or sugars for 12 days then Clear Liquids for 48 hours before surgery. But look at it this way, you'll get a much bigger head start on your weight loss than I will. I've been on it for 5 days and only dropped 1 pound.

      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.
