My surgery is schedule for May 6. Very nervous about the mental aspects after the surgery. Doing this with my wife hope all goes well. I will be starting my protein shakes on April 29 wish me luck.

You'll do great! Just remember the first week or so might be rough. But it's all worth it :-) Good Luck :-)

Good-luck! Just like CarrieP said you may have a rough 1st week, I unfortunately had a harder time, but hang in there no matter what it does get easier. Hopefully you will just have a smooth recovery! I wish I would have had Unjury Chicken soup, unflavored and strawberry sorbet protein powders during my 1st month. The protein powders I use to love prior to surgery, I could not stand them after.

Thanks Guys I never thought in a million years that I would need a support group but reading the before and after post is very uplifting and informational.

Good luck to the both if you!! We are here for you if you need any support, words if advice, or encouragement!!! Prayers for a speedy recovery and an easy go of it!!
