Today is the start of my two well pre op liquid diet. I have done shake diets before very successfully.... until I find good again!! I know what I'm up for and the headache started around 11am this morning. I've had loads of Water and my two shakes and one Optifast pudding. I've got a chalky mouth and my head is pounding. I once this would be the day one feelings and side effects... it will last about one week then I'll feel fine.

I'm excited I've started; the first day is always the hardest.

Need time now, just after 8pm after two hours relaxing in the pool. I love summer in Australia!!

I am sure it's withdrawl symptoms. I've had a crappy night sleep, and have the makings of another headache brewing. I'll be easy on myself today. My stepsons are home with me this week while hubby goes to work. They are fabulous kids and will be a great help.

Oh good god, the autocorrect mistakes....sheesh.

Two week pre op.

Find food again.

Day two, feeling not as headachy and haven't had any neurofen yet so that's a good sign. I've been on the ride on mower for a couple of hours in readiness for Christmas day, in the pool for a swim, fed the kids, they are in the pool now while I catch up on some me time. Yes, they are old enough to be unsupervised and are also surf lifesavers so quite safe in the water! 🙂

wow, you finished 2 shakes? I'm 2 days shy of 3 weeks post op and I can't even finish a half of one. I wish!!

I'm 4 wks out and only 4 oz 3 x a day. No issues so probably try the whole 11oz this weekend.

      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.
