Hi Slamdunk! I live in North London, and am scheduled for surgery on 2nd November 2016. How are you getting in with the liver shrinking diet? Are u liquids only? I'm struggling tbh, and I'm only on day 3! It's not the liquids that bothers me it's the constant rumbling hunger!

My surgery date is October 26th and I'd love a buddy in the same boat! I live in Minneapolis, but London is my favorite city!! We were just there in June. #jealous

Hi all, I'm from the UK. My surgery date is the 3rd Nov and started pre op diet on the 20th Oct. Doing shakes for Breakfast and lunch, with a main meal from the pre op plan. I've noticed that things are a little different in the USA in way of pre op diet. I would like to know how other people are coping with the diet, as I'm only on day 3. Many thanks.

      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.
