I just had my surgery on 1/30 and know exactly what you are talking about. What helped me was wonderful people on this forum and reading their success stories, and also thinking about why I am doing it. I made the decision because I've been carrying the weight for my entire life I couldn't do it anymore. I could lose the weight before but I could never maintain it. My weight prevented me from doing things I wanted to. My weight was detrimental to my health and it would only get worse. Surgery is no fun, but it is a tool for a better future. Think what you are doing it. What are your reasons? It will put things in perspective and calm you down.

      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.
