Thanks for the advice about the protein. I will visit with my Dr tomorrow and see what he has to say.

I was banded August 3 & seem to be doing pretty well. I have lost 28 pounds, and I am still on the full liquid part of the post op diet. I went back to work last week, and worked half days, would come home and take a nap. Yesterday I was so tired all day!! Today I seem to be better, but then again it is 8:15 a.m. I would like some suggestions on getting some energy back, and not being so tired.

I would like to know what everyone has used on liquid diets. Some of the protien drinks, broth and jello are getting a litle boring.... lol. Any ideas would be appreciated!

I have a question. Did anyone try diet pills before having the lap band? I have been on diet pills before and do well with them. They help control the appetite, & I was able to loose weight. Then when I would go off of the diet pill my weight would come back on. My question is with the lap band can it be compared to that of a diet pill as far as it helping control your hunger?

Today I had my visit with my Doctor, and have my surgery date set. I am finished with all my pre op tests & ready to go. I am wondering if I am doing the right thing by having the lap band surgery. I have been telling myself that the lap band is going to be a tool to help me lose the weight . I hope that I have the will power that is going to be needed to use the lap band the way it should be used.
