Hey I also see Dr. Balil. I'm not scheduled as of yet, because I have to go through the 6th month insurance stuff. I am hoping to have my surgery in August or September. It seems like it is so far away. Did you all have to do the 6th month thing? Did you lose pre-op? What kind of pre op diet does he put you on?

I did not have to do the 6 months because I am self pay. My process has been since December but it would have been quicker but I had to schedule appointments around college. My pre-op has been a week as of today and I have lost 6pounds. The pre-op could be as long as 14 days depending on you size, because the reason for the liquid pre-op is to shrink your liver. My surgery is Friday and honestly it feels like I have been waiting for ever and this week of liquids has been the longest week of my life.

      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.
