I use Isagenix. While it is expensive (about $300 a month), it replaces 68 meals during the month. I feel better now than I have in my whole life. The concept is complete wellness and nutrition. It rids your body of toxins while providing perfect nutrition.

I am able to sell it but the only reason I am even considering it is because of how much I love the products. My boss got me hooked on it and I can't get over how wonderful I feel. I don't look at it as a business opportunity. I am just doing it for the products. I am definitely not out to sell to anyone.

I know this is an old post but I searched Isagenix on here. I am so excited to see that some people have used it. I just started this week and I have to say I am LOVING it!!! I had my band surgery in June and I have been doing well. The Isagenix was started solely for the wellness and nutrition factor. The weight loss/inches loss is just a nice side effect. My mom just started using it too and is feeling amazing.

Got 4 but then she took out 2 because I couldn't swallow water. I have a 14 cc band

I was so excited to get my band filled today. Everything was going great! They put in 4 ccs. It was all downhill from there. I sat up, felt okay, started drinking my Water. At the second sip, I got hot all over, a little tingly, and then started heaving. The doc took out 2 ccs. I still feel really weak but at least I can swallow water. Has this happened to anyone else?

Absolutely LOVE the topic! Congrats!!!

Banded 6/11. I am down 31 pounds total since starting the liquid diet. I feel GREAT!!!! I haven't had any food issues so far. Some days I forget to get all of my protein and supplements in. I find that if I am not eating enough, I lose nothing. I am getting my first fill on Wednesday so I am pretty excited about that. I also have much more energy and all of my pants are WAY TOO BIG.

Same things...also if you are on the pill and they gave you the anti-clotting shots, I have heard it makes the pill ineffective.

I wore it when I started exercising more shortly after surgery mainly for my port which was still sore. It made a huge difference and made exercising much more comfortable.

Monday will be 2 weeks post-op. Today I put on my wedding ring for the first time in 8 months. And for the first time in 3 years, my feet aren't sore and swollen. I am down 20 pounds since pre-op which isn't too shabby either. I hope this is the start of the new me!!!

I am day 6 as well. Some people actually feel pain differently than others. You are doing fine. I am one of the people that have said how great I feel. However, I still have port incision pain and getting up is awkward. I could have probably gone back to work yesterday but i do not have a physically demanding job. I know people that needed 2 full weeks. I think everyone just heals at their own pace. Take it easy!

I felt horrible day 2. Regrets, just not feeling right. I had very little pain which I could've cared less about. It was all the other feelings, nausea, anxiety, lump in my throat, gas. Today is day 5 and I feel pretty great. It will get better. Hang in there!

That's how I felt when i drank too much too fast. It was just uncomfortable.

Hope everyone is doing well after Monday. I wish i could get rid of these gas pains in my back. I guess walking is the answer since they don't bother me when I am up.

Hang in there. I was just banded Monday. I had terrible nausea day 2 and part of 3. I didn't take pain meds by choice or any type of tylenol. I just have some gas pains in my back. Today i am like a new woman.

Had surgery Monday and it does get better. Days 2 and half of three were terrible. I used a heating pad on my back which helped with gas pain.

So here I am on the 3rd day post op. I did get to stay in the hospital overnight which was a relief. Since I felt so good in the hospital I thought that going home would be a piece of cake. Unfortunately, I had bouts of nausea yesterday coupled with my anxiety acting up. I really hope and pray that passes soon. I guess things are getting better. I haven't really eaten since surgery but this morning I am trying to have a little bit of very watered down oatmeal. I still have a good bit of gas but it only bothers me every so often. It keeps me from getting in all the liquids because I feel so full. I am walking, probably not as much as I should. I will be fixing that problem today. I did it also before bed last night and felt so much better. I have a high tolerance for pain so I am not really taking any pain meds. Only taken a dose before bed. So, the pain is not an issue. Tell me it gets better.

I'm in Fredericksburg...just banded yesterday.

Went to a nutrition seminar today. People having different surgeries were there. I was the only one having the band. One guy getting the sleeve said...and I quote. Uh. Why would you ever do the band? You know it doesn't work. I just can't stand people like this.

Starting mine tomorrow. It is optifast so at least I don't have to think about what to eat. Good luck.

Starting my optifast tomorrow and trying to keep a positive perspective. Some initial weight loss and being closer to my surgery date of June 11th can't be all bad.

June 11th for me. I start optifast on Memorial Day. So excited..For surgery not optifast.

You look great!
