You've decided to make a change with your relationship with food. It is not simple or easy. The next year will be an emotional time as you go through this change starting now.

Good luck, read the forum and ask any question you have.

That does sound hard!! But you will be happy that you quit so early. You will have a lot on your plate (no pun intended) after surgery so that will be one MAJOR withdrawal you will not have to do at the same time.

A lot of people smoke, drink, binge up until the last minute.

I think the way your going you will have a smoother time :)

Are you using the patch or Nicorette? I have gone cold turkey in the past but then ate everything in sight. Using a smoking aid might keep you from feeling like you are crawling walls. Good luck! I'm tackling it now and it's so hard!

Thinking and preparing ahead is always a good thing! Just remember it will be worth it ! After reading some of these posts of people that want this surgery and can't because of finances. I feel blessed that I was able to do it.

Remember that in the tough times and you will do great :)

I hope your blue day goes away tomorrow. Try to do something for yourself today, go for a walk, take a hot bubblebath, some yoga before bed, take an hour, read a book or simply put on some good music and enjoy this day. Your health is getting better, you're treating yourself more kindly. Well done on the quitting smoking, that's a terrible habit to kick and you need to give yourself a huge pat on the back.

      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.
