Yeah I'm excited are you? I'm on the liquid diet. I look forward to starting a new chapter in my life.

I'm scheduled for April 30th...Super excited to start a new life & to feel more comfortable in my own skin. Looking to share this experience with other people going through the same thing. I started my liquid diet on Saturday...today was the toughest so far. I went to the grocery store. I know it sounds silly but I haven't eaten anything other than broth, Jello, popsicle's and Water since Saturday.

I started on Monday and I've had a few crackers on mom and a few pretzels Tuesday I know it's bad. Back on track today I know I have too.

I started on Monday and I've had a few crackers on mom and a few pretzels Tuesday I know it's bad. Back on track today I know I have too.

I woke up this morning with the worst headache :( I had a few crackers Tuesday but that's it. I haven't seen my doctor since January and since then I had gained about 6 pounds.. My grandmother was on hospice for a month so I spent most of my days sitting in the room with my mom and we would eat crap food & lot's of wine just because that's all there was to do. I hate that I allowed myself to do that but it was one of the only things that got me through it. Needless to say, I have my last apt pre-op apt with my doctor this Friday and he's going to think that I either haven't been doing my liquids or know that I gained weight...he's very strict. Well I'm off to get ready for work, nice that someone replied to one of my posts :) When is your surgery?

I'm May 1 as well! I started my pre-op diet today, though I "practiced" the last couple of days at work. My diet is 3-4 shakes a day + a lean cuisine type meal, for total calories under 890. Today I had my endoscopy so I didn't eat anything until 5pm when I finally got home :/ then I had (over the next 3 hours) a shake, an Amy's frozen burrito, 6 shrimps, and later some chicken broth. I feel like I should have another shake, but my throat hurts and I'm beat so I'm just going to throw in the towel and go to bed.

      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.
