Yes, I have used them and I like them. I like the cafe caramel better over the mocha but my sister likes the mocha better. I guess it's a matter of choice. I have tried them all except the breakfast ones. They have more carbs that the other ones and less protein. I have also used the eas brand and the muscle milk light. I like them all.

Relax. I was nervous too. But don't worry, the eveluation consist of 2 parts, written and oral. What the psychologist wants to know is that you understand this is a major lifestyle change. You understand this is a tool and not a quick fix. That you have to work with the band and not let the band do all the work. Excercise and good eating habits are important too. Quick tip: Don't rush thru the written questions. They will ask you the same question over and over again just to confuse you. No rush. There's no right or wrong answer. If you have done your homework and read all the material given at the seminars you'll do fine.

My team said not to worry about carbs and calories in the beggining. You still have to try and choose light and ff items but you can have carbs every now and then.

I guess it depends on the surgeon. My surgeon didn't ask me to do anything and thakfully everything was fine. If he would've asked me I would've done it for my own good.

Welcome Mandy.

I take chewable multi vitamins and chewable calcium with vitamin D for better absorbtion. I have to set up my alarms so I don't forget to take them, I do whatever it takes to stay healthy and not have a deficiency in the near future.

Cream of wheat, cottage cheese, pudding, yogurt, oatmeal, refried beans, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes or plantains. All of those are phase 2 foods.

I can't eat or drink because I been burping all afternoon ... I don't know what to do ? Any advise ?.... I think it was some crackers I had that are causing all this burping but I can't really say. All I had today was the usual coffee in the morning (10;30 am) follow by my Protein shake.(12pm) A few hours later I had crackers (keebler) with mayo (2 pm) follow by another cup of coffee. (I think that the coffee on top of the crackers made them expand or something like that) After that I had more crackers with 2 slices american cheese (5 pm) I tried having ice cream around (9pm) but the burping would not allow me. Its painful trying to eat or drink like this . HELP!!!!!!
