I didnt run the whole thing, but I didnt walk the whole thing either and to me, thats AWESOME!

I was just wondering if anyone knows of any Protein shakes that actually taste good? I have always been turned off to the flavor of artificial sweetners, never liked diet sodas or foods sweetened with splenda? Help!

My surgery is tomorrow too and I have been FREAKING out because of a sore throat. Can i also mention that I am STARVING and weak from this lquids only diet today. I feel like I am dying. Is it really worth all of this?

Thank you for this! I am in LOVE with the "Ohyeah" chocolate flavor, I thought Cookies and cream was gross but still without your post I wouldnt of tried them, kinda expensive but SOOOOO worth it. Its like chocolate milk!!

I'm so sorry to hear that you were in such pain after. They started your band with a fill? My surgeon is just going to place the band on empty first so I can heal and then slowly add the CC's as time goes on. I wonder if that had anything to do with the hiccups? I am glad they took some out though and you got a chance to take your pain meds and rest. Hope today goes better for you!

You are so lucky you only had to do two days. Good luck with your surgery today! I will be thinking about you!!

Hi there =) I'm 25, but not a guy, sorry! Lol. I am suppose to get my lap band November 7th. I am doing the pre op diet and I am STARVING! any tips?

Is anyone else tired and exhaused like me? I am only on day 2 of my pre of diet and I feel like I have no energy at all. I could seriously fall asleep while writing this post. I have been doing 3 protein shakes/bars, as well as some cottage cheese, yogurt and salad and soup. Im not that hungry, I just have no energy. what should I do? I am pretty sure its from a lack of curgar/caffiene?

Suppose to be sugar not CURGAR? see how tired I am!!!

So I have been thinking all day I need to post a blog to see if anyone else is going through what I am. On day one of my 2 week pre op diet. Today sucked, the protein shakes and soup sucked, but you know what, I stuck to it, didnt cheat all day, and even as I sit here now with my belly making noise, I am HAPPY with my first day behind me. So I have also learned, there are so many people who are against this surgery. People who are usually skinny, seem to be "fitness" experts. It doesnt take an expert to have a high metabolism and a "know everything attitude". For example, I posted on facebook "Tomorrow I start my life of working out, protein shakes, no carbs and a new me....but today I'm eating homemade eggrolls and pancakes! I'm really going to enjoy today". This caused a huge uproar, and everyone of my so called "friends" began lecturing me about how carbs are the bottom of the food pyramid, and I will never be able to safely lose weight by following this and my doctor must be crazy. I didnt tell anyone I was getting the surgery, but even those I did had the same things to say. There is a whole department dedicated to this at the hospital. If it really was so crazy would a doctor, dietitian, nutritionist, and personal trainer all tell me I dont need carbs to be alive and energetic? People suck. Anyway, thats my sob story. I am hungry, there are HATERS, but I am SOOO Happy in 13 days I will have the lap band!

What are otter pops? Lol and why is it so terrible?

I am also getting banded November 7th, I will be thinking about you on that day!!!

I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get samples of Any Whey or protein shakes that have no artifical sweetners in it?

Cool I will keep that in mind, Thank you!

That sample pack that is 39.99 on the website, how many packs does it come with? The description is pretty confusing when it says 37 x 50g? Is it 37 packs or what?
