Is it just me or is this page acting up today? It took me reloading the page across three different browsers just to get this reply box to show up. Don't even get me started on trying to quote someone! Argh!

I've had trouble off and on for the last couple days.. Working now though!

Yeah, I was able to get in 3 shakes and 1 yogurt. And adding the yogurt into the rotation was pushing it honestly. I’m not even hungry. I did have a sugar free popsicle, but that was because it was extremely hot today. I just drank Water between Protein Shakes. I knew they gave me an easy diet, lol. Don’t know how easy the full liquid part will be for the 2 days before surgery. Also, day of surgery I’m going to be feeling dehydrated. No water after midnight and my surgery is late in the afternoon...oh well, I’ll live 😂

Reading all the stuff about the liquid diet prior makes me nervous, my dr didn’t give me that at all
Just said to eat light,and nothing after midnight the night before
All my paperwork states the same thing

My liquid diet isn’t too bad. 3 Protein Shakes a day and they asked that I also eat 2 yogurts but I can only manage 1. Your liver must not need to be shrunk much. Lucky you! And same about the nothing after midnight. I don’t mind the not eating food part but I LOVE Water and my surgery is late in the day (3:15pm, have to be there by 1:45pm) so I will be parched for a while, lol

I would love an earlier time but they’ve confirmed 3:15 like 3 times already for me, lol. And have you tried a sugar free liquid enhancer for your Water? Adds some flavor for non water drinkers. I just love ice cold water 🤷🏽‍♀️

The hospital I’m having surgery at is a less than 10 minute ride away. Gonna get there early and hopefully they will get all of the day of pre-op testing out of the way pretty quickly. I’m so anxious but not in an “I’m so scared/nervous” type of way. More of an “I’m excited and want to get this over with and start my new healthy life” type of way

I hear ya, i was scheduled for my sleeve back in April and the called and canceled my surgery the day before it was suppose to happen.
And rescheduled me for the 28th of June
I was so ready to have it done then..mentally and physically
I was devastated when it happened, and i feel like I’m not as prepared this time

      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.
