21 days out today and I'm sore in a different way with the passing time. It's better for sure but "normal?" Not yet, though there are moments I'll forget (then usually bend fast and be quickly reminded)

i am 9 days out and can now sleep on my side. Actually did it at 4 or 5 days out. i feel almost 100% but feeling little weak because of liquid diet. 8 lbs down already, so definitely worth reward!

It takes about 4 weeks to feel normal. The incision pain is usually gone by then and your energy level will even out. I was done May 1st I am down 92 lbs as of this week. Hang in there you will make it.

Oh and try laying a small pillow in your side & slowly roll onto it. Sounds weird but kinda rest your belly on it. Its worked for me!!!!

I'm a belly sleeper so it's been difficult... I have bone spurs in my back which press on my sciatic nerve so sleeping on my back isn't comfortable most of the time on my mattress... I can do if in my recliner... That's where I have been sleeping... Last night I tried my bed but had nerve "pain" in my upper thigh so back to the recliner I went... I'm still trying to figure it out... I was sleeved on 9/11!

Sleeved on the 23rd. Very blessed. Can sleep on my side since day one. I know, lucky me! Am meeting all liquid and diet requirements. Though, I am tired of the liquid diet and am heavily mourning food. Mostly because I did not have a pre op diet, so I am literally withdrawing. Otherwise, al is well. As for the pain, not needing any pain meds any more, though I can feel the soreness when I move and stand up. I think I will be much more happy when able to do solid. For now, I have follow everything by the book!

I have been sleeved on 9/23rd as well I can sleep on my side as well as my stomach but the issue that I am having is getting the liquids down. I can get about 5 or 6 spoons of broth and then it feels like its rumbling in my stomach and trying to come back up . sometimes its like that and I haven't consumed anything. Has anyone else experience this?

      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.
