I finally got a surgery date!!!! YAY!!!! September 16th is the day!!!! I'm soooo excited, can you tell?! Lol, starting my liver shrink diet Monday!!!

how are the sept 16th ers doing? i had mine monday and piece of cake so far. i am sort of shocked by how much liquid I can consume though. hope it is not a reflection on amount of food, when I go to solids

Ok, just a little update! I am not 4 days post-op and feeling great!!!! I had my surgery on monday afternoon september 16, 2013. I stayed in the hospital until wednesday afternoon, that day is still felt great. I've had no real pain, at least none the pain meds can't handle, and very little nausea. Yesterday, which was the day after I left the hospital, I decided that I would not spend it in bed and my daddy and I went to Walmart (first stop, i left my debit card at home and didn't realize it until after we finished shopping. had to go home, get the card and come back to the store. TRAGEDY.!) , Kroger, and Walgreens. I felt fine the entire time. Today, I returned to school! I have found some cream soups and broths that I like, as well as my protein shakes and juices. I bought the flintstones complete multivitamins, which are disgusting might i add, but since my surgeon and dietician don't like the gummies this is what I have to take. I did buy some prenatal gummies and biotin just to add a little extra because I am NOT excited about losing my hair, I have been growing it since birth! lol!

Hey chica!!! I'm glad to hear that everything is going well with you! I still feel great, but I'm having a hard time getting my fluids and protein down...my lil pouch is not havin it right now! I can only take tiny sips at a time!

I am 3 days post surgery and still battling the gas.i am walking a lot and trying to keep moving. Luckily I feel better each day.

My pre-op for the hospital is tomorrow at 8 am' date=' chest x-ray, ekg, blood work and urine test.. Then Friday begins my 10 pre-op liquid Protein diet. Thank goodness I found Protein drinks that I can tolerate. Hopefully I still will be able to after surgery too..[/quote']
