how long did it take for you to get to eat regular food again

and is there anything for me to watch out for that might cause pain, PBs or discomfort??

best of luck to you!

check with your doctor on when you can progress through the food stages - every doctor is different.

remember when you get to solids to CHEW CHEW CHEW and eat slowly.

thanks folks with all the congrats and well wishes.. and defiantly prayers

All in all it was smooth sailing

at least my Dr's part!

but...before you go NPO the night before

DRINK YOUR Water

it's was 11:30PM before I got home and was almost admitted :wink2:

because I couldn't pee before I left..

Doc was called several times and I ended up with a french foley

one time drainage system..:frown:

anyway the Doc said that if I didn't pee before 7am at home(an hours and a half ago)

that I was to immediately call him:sad:

I did call him to tell him I drank a half gallon of Water between 11:35PM until 3am and

went 4 times before the call time of 7am :thumbup:

so DRINK YOUR WATER a LOT of it

before you go NPO for the band

      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.
