Oh my! My dr has told us everything from the first visit.

We got a book that goes into detail ( which I like - give me all the information -i hate not knowing whats what! )

Yeah it irks me actually that I'm in the dark over what to expect, how to diet (pre-op & post-op), I haven't met my surgeon... I haven't had any classes ...I haven't even received a book nothing absolutely nothing!!! my first appointment is next Thursday for paperwork and weigh in... I don't even have my classes until right before my surgery!!!?

I'll be honest... I dieted for a few months (6mo required)... but then when I was waiting for my approval... I kinda ate like I wanted to for three months...and then I just started dieting again last Sunday...and I plan to diet until I have my surgery and after!! right now I'm doing two Protein shakes a day (morning & night) and one small meal in the afternoon...(either salad or like a lean cuisine or something)...

Lulu22 I am scheduled for Nov 1st and I am actually surprised I have made it this far on the liquid diet. This is the fourth day and I've have some low blood sugar issues but otherwise feeling like I'm going to make it. How are you doing?

Ok I've made it one week on my 2 week liquid diet. Have my pre-op visit with Dr Allison tomorrow. Time is moving so fast, or so it seems. There are many of us going in the first week of November. Can you believe it, we're almost there!

I'm in November buddies. My surgery is November 1st just two more days. I have been on a two week liquid diet. Not as bad as I expected. My husband has been tremendously supportive. He doesn't eat around me. The thing for me is to keep busy. I'm a "boredom" eater. The great news?....I am already cutting BP medication dosages in half!.....insulin had to be reduced by 30% off a diuretic all together. This is going to be sooo worth it. Not to mention how great we will feel and look!! My surgery will be in Viera Florida. Any other Florida people? My prayer is that we all succeed in our goal to be healthier. God Bless.

Oh gosh, that's such an awkward day to start but it'll be worth it! You'll be able to make up for it next Halloween :)

      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.
