Is it normal to be nervous and emotional about everything? Or am I worrying for nothing?

I feel like a ball of emotions! My surg is July 11 and I am excited and emotional. This liver shrink diet has me totally crazy. It's not that hard but influences(coworkers) saying hey let's get burgers for lunch, doesn't help. I've been strong but it is still tough. Hubby had his surg tues and it went great smooth sailing. He said his most pain was the first night. But he has been doing great! No pain, eating puréed, drinking, everything! I'm so proud of him and watching him has me more calm about my surg. Ladies we r gonna do great just don't let the emotions get the best of us!

This preop diet is nuts for me too! 4 shakes a day and sugar free Clear liquids for 10 days. My kids had a pizza party last night an tomorrow is my daughters birthday party. Glad your husband is doing well!

Yes this 10 day shakes diet is the hardest thing I've ever done! I would rather have another kid....it would be so much easier and I had two bad ones!!! I'm 6days in...... I think they started me too early by 2 days lol. Oh my hubs made cheese toast this morning and I had to go outside in the heat it smelled so good. That is when I realized above all else bread is my absolute weakness.

I know exactly how you are feeling. We were on vacation the second week of my liver shrinking diet. It was so hard watching my daughters eat pizza and fried seafood. It was all worth it. I lost 20 lbs on the diet for a total of 53 leading up to surgery, and my surgery was on the 19th and it is going great. Stay strong and it will all be worth it.

      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.
