I hub had surgery last tuesday and he is doing great! He is already eating puréed and drinking and doing good no nausea I'm impressed! Ready for my surg now!(July 11) but his voice is horse! Like bad but we don't know why it hasn't worn off yet. Can someone tell me if they went thru this? I was gonna call the doctor cause we are getting worried they might have hurt his vocal cords. Thanks for any answers

Man that's tough. Mine is unlimited veggies and fruits, lean cuisine for lunch, protein shakes.

Yea I'm eBaying it too. That will keep me occupied. I'm feeling good about this journey I'm gonna start journalling about this whole process. We have so many goals and we will achieve them.)

Mine is July 11 and I do pretty good. Lean cuisine is my best friend. I have just done ok. Everyday I'm tempted this is hard. Now I'm outta town wit mom visiting family for the 4th....pray for me y'all! I'm allowing 1 day to just do whatever with restrictions so I should be ok.

Ok ok we have to represent! I'm glad to see y'all here!!! We all have to encourage each other this is a hard process....especially with the good ole southern food we have(MemphisBBQ)! Ha

Gosh no Memphis tn folks??Or southerners!

I feel like a ball of emotions! My surg is July 11 and I am excited and emotional. This liver shrink diet has me totally crazy. It's not that hard but influences(coworkers) saying hey let's get burgers for lunch, doesn't help. I've been strong but it is still tough. Hubby had his surg tues and it went great smooth sailing. He said his most pain was the first night. But he has been doing great! No pain, eating puréed, drinking, everything! I'm so proud of him and watching him has me more calm about my surg. Ladies we r gonna do great just don't let the emotions get the best of us!

Mine is July 11! He had his first! I'm ready girl!!

Vamp girl that's my size now can't wait to get to half! Hubby is at home now from surgery on Tuesday. He said he has no pain! Wow I hope I'm the same! Now I gotta get his energy up he has just been laying around. Did u go thru that at all?

Ha!! I've heard chicken thighs are more tender meat I saw a recipe on YouTube I can't remember but u could purchase boneless skinless thighs an bell pepper, onion sautéd and season chicken with taco seasoning. Also sprinkle a little low fat cheese on. Hope this helps!

No solution for alcohol;(( I'm sad too...but maybe in much smaller portions. If u can't control it don't even try it. Pizza- my fav also...recipe Tortilla wrap-low carb or no fat Pizza sauce Low fat cheese mozzarella Turkey pepperoni Ground turkey sausage Sautéed veggies(soft) Pop Tortilla in a skillet to brown then add pizza sauce cheese, veggies and toppings pop in oven for 6 mins and bam! Low fat pizza...make sure u go by serving size to check calories and fat and protein. Enjoy!

Thanks y'all r just darling! He is doing very good he practically ran around the unit! His Lil sis calle him road runner. I had to tell him slow down. He is having the burps and like phlegm came up a couple of times. I'm gettin menu together so we are very prepared. His mom makes some delish tuna so I'm gonna make that (altered low sugar), jello, chicken salad, chicken broth, protein shakes, and smoothies, also I'm gonna make the no noodle lasagna I know that will be tasty. Do u all actually put everything in food processor or do u just make sure u chew a lot?

Thanks yo, and kiwi I'm already on it. Restaurant down street has a big bag just like that. He should get broth or sum today like he is living on ice chips. Ready for him to have something.

Thanks! This has been pretty tough. It brings me to tears to see him in pain cause he is so strong. I told him I wish I could take ur pain and put it on me...he said no... I won't let u. Then he told me he felt so blessed to hav a good and beautiful wife to be with him thru this...so blessed! Wow my hubby is so sweet!! I'm the truly blessed one. Can't wait to joke with him....snoooorrreee....ice! Ice chips!!...snnnoooorree...ice!!! Icechips!!! Lol

Good luck!! I'm here with hubby his day was today! We r starting the new way together!

Thanks guys... He is taking it slow. In some pain but they just gave pain meds. Day 1 of new beginnings!
