Good luck on your surgery and remember after the operation when you return to your hospital bed to Walk, Walk, Walk.

Good luck! First few days suck on Clear Liquids and the pain - but it will pass and you will make it. Just make sure to keep up with your liquids - set a timer for every 15 mins to make sure you have your 1-2oz of liquids and you will be fine. Take advantage of the nursing staff, they are a wonderful resource and help while you are in the hospital. As others said - walk as soon as you can and walk often - it really does help. Even if you only walk half a hallway in 15 mins - just walk, or shuffle, or saunter - whichever suits you best.

Thank you to everyone that responded...
I’m doing a lot better than I thought I would.... Surgery was quick and easy... no major pain just soreness at the incisions and surprisingly I’m getting my fluids in, although I do have to constantly remind myself to drink Water, etc. Hoping I advance in diet when I see her for my 1 week post-op check up!


Thank you all for the well wishes

      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.
