Good luck Brandi, you on liquid diet?

Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you. My physician only requires liquid diet one day before surgery. They also told me that I shouldn't have any pain. They'll give me a shot that will keep the area numb for several days

Omg you guys are lucky I am on day 7 of 14 day liquid diet

That's must be really hard. I'm glad I only have to do it one day. My surgeon and insurance didn't require me to lose weight before surgery. I just couldn't gain during my 6 months of weight mgmt

I'm required to do an all liquid diet for 7 days prior to surgery. The purpose is to shrink the liver. I'm so not looking forward to it. I have decided to remove all food from my home and donate to a local food bank. I figure it removes any temptation. Lord help me! Lol

That does sound difficult. Good job removing all temptation. That was a smart idea. I am not doing a liquid diet until the day before surgery. I have been on a 1200 cal no carb diet since 12/28. I am starting to get used to it.

      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.
