So I had by pass on March 26th. Surgeon told me he removed and repaired a Hernia the size of a football at the same time. Next day I had a reaction to pain meds that had me in seasides, Wednesday I sprung a leak in one of my entry points and lost a lot of blood. They released on Friday. Rough weekend due lots of gas still in my system. Yet through all of this, you can’t stop fighting. Their is no turning back.

It’s Monday morning, I slept five painless hours for the first time ! Things are looking up and I can’t wait to tackle my day.

Just a few days later and doing much better. Seeing my surgeon this afternoon. Hope to be on soft foods tonight. Clear Liquids two days prior to surgery and seven days since the surgery, I’m ready for some new options.

      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.
