How do the EAS shakes taste? Do you mix it or is it pre-made? Where do you buy it? Good luck on Monday.

Melissa: My surgery date was changed to 8/7. I went on Friday for pre-op testing, and start my pre-op diet today. I am very excited. Good Luck!

Where do you buy the Matrix 5.0? I am being banded on 8/15, and need to find a protein drink that is palatable. Thanks.

kygal, I was initially self-pay, and had a consultation with Dr. Geller. He is nice enough, and I would have had him do the surgery, but my insurance company (Anthem PPO) added coverage for the procedure as of January 2007, so I waited. They will only allow Lusco, Olsofka, and Schuster. I am scheduled for lap band with Lusco on 8/15. My friend had gastric bypass with Allen about 6 years ago, whom he says is really good.

My surgery date is 8/15 with Dr. Lusco. The staff are so easy to work with, which I love. Insurance approval was pretty quick, I have Anthem PPO. Good luck.

I am confirmed for August 15th.

This is my first time on a message board, and I am glad to have found this group. I have been approved and my surgery date will be either 8/7 or 8/14. I hope to find out today. Looking forward to losing weight with you guys.
