ANYONE TRY MET-RX PROTEIN PLUS? tHEY ARE 2.9FL OZ AND HAVE 32G PROTEIN.

Do I use the same points plus limit they give me or do I adjust for the band?

Hello October 2011 Bandsters, and all those that have been before us. This site is AWESOME! Its the only way I've gotten through this pre-op diet so far. I'm on day 3 and doing better today than yesterday and yesterday was better than the day before. I can do this!!! WE Can do this!!!! My banding date is October 7. I'm bumped and can't wait. Good luck everyone!

Well, day one of preop diet and almost over. Sometimes I want to run! This is the third time I've attempted lap band surgery. 1st time, the dietician was so rude that I would rather do it on my own. I did. I lost 60 lbs on WW, but then my life got really busy due to a promotion at work and I went back to all my old habits. Then, I was scheduled on 1/21/11 for surgery. My father passed on 1/13/11. So, here I am again. 3rd times a charm. I'm going to do this this time. I'm going to do it for me, my kids, my husband, my family, and for my #1 hero, my Dad. He's with me going through this too. We're going to do it together just like we planned to do. Only he's in Heaven guiding me. I miss him. I need all the help I can get from all the Heavens.

Hi, Erica! I too just started my pre-op diet. I'm getting banded on October 7th. I too am getting soooo hungry between 3pm and 5pm. I'm hoping there's something I'm missing that could take the hunger away. I've finished day 2 and no cheating, even though work had donuts. Ugh! My pre op is 8 days of 3 shakes per day, 2 Snacks that consist of 1/2 cup of fruit, 1 cup yogurt, or 1 cup salad. Then, 2 days Clear liquids. If anyone has some ideas on how to curb the hunger, it would be so helpful. I'm using unjury and GNC Amp shakes. Thanks!
