Don't use mouth wash or breath strips while on antibiotics. I got thrush & I think that is why I got it.

Try coconut Water during your 1st week of Clear Liquids (post-op) -- good electrolytes and tastes refreshing (much better than Gatorade).

Those sound like excellent tips. Thanks!

Any tips for how to beat this sugar withdrawal headache?

She is out of surgery. Dr. Overby said all went well and surgery was actually shorter than he expected. Hope to see her soon. Will update when I do.

Sorry. It should be gone by the 4th day (or perhaps during the 4th day). I had a constant headache for 3 days including a Migraine the 1st night. Felt better the 4th day & have only had 1 headache since about 3 days after surgery.

I had my Sleeve done this Monday Aug 12th. I was in a little pain after and better the next day. Today I am back home and feeling great. I have been sipping Water and Evolve Protein Shakes. So excited to begin this journey.

      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.
