What shrinks your liver?



Recommended Posts

Thank you all for the replies to my question' date=' I really appreciate it. So my diet is good then. I have had no fats or carbs just 1 boiled egg every other day, just sugar free fluids and 1 or two Protein shakes a day. I am feeling weak and a very bad attitude. So far... I've been called into my bosses office twice in four days! Lmao! I do work with cupcakes thou.

Xoxoxo to all of you guys & gals.[/quote']

I agree with Gamegirl....stick to what your doctor has ordered. Its not worth the risk

My doctors diet was slim fast or the like in am, noon and lean cuisine at night for 10 days. Not much like a diet but it worked I guess... im sleeved. High fat/calorie diet makes for one big liver. They have to move it out of the way and in some folks its 3 times normal size. That's why the bigger you are, the more risky the surgery. Liver bleeds easy when nicked and can be hard to stop so they don't want to hurt it in anyway. My doc said if he got in there and it was too big, he would not go further. One of the reasons I passed on gallbladder removal. That and 25% of all who have it removed have the runs for life.

Funny how sooo many doctors have soo many instructions. With mine, we don't do Protein drinks, all from food, Im already doing solids although its about 6 table spoon then it just makes you feel icky, full, bloated, which is good for me. I loved food. Food is not nearly as interesting anymore :)

Now what can I removed to make me not want to go to the casinos....lol buffaloooooooooooo lol

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
