Do you think I'll be ok?



Recommended Posts

So I'm planning on surgery sometime in September. I am also planning on going back to school...Liberty University Online...in August. The classes of course are all online but can be pretty intense. Do you think I'll be fine after surgery to keep up with my online classes? Classes consist of a lot of reading and paper writing.

If it were me I would try to get work done ahead of the surgery. In other words see if you can get ahead on the class work. I know that I had very little energy the first 2 weeks.

That's the good thing about online classes...I'm able to work ahead!

Of course, not a problem.

You'll encounter a number of people who will attempt to baby you on this issue, including yourself, but don't pay any attention to them; yes you'll have no problem doing the online courses

The biggest hurdle at all immediately post surgery was being tired, but do as much as you can before surgery and then rest a few days and then get back on it. You'll be fine and the fact that you are probably going to be bored to tears at that point will make you ever so grateful for something to stimulate you.

      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.
