I have to share my excitement with everyone! I got my insurance approval today and surgery is scheduled for May 10th! I am soooo excited and a bit nervous. I have my pre-op testing on Saturday and meet with the surgeon next Monday for the final appt. I also meet with the nutrition counselor to review pre-op and post-op diet. I am sooo excited! My hubby isn't as excited. I wish he was. I think he might be a bit nervous that something bad will happen in the surgery. My mom thinks that he might be nervous that once I am thin, I will leave him. No way! Any other May 10th banders? Any advice? I want to EAT all the foods that I know I won't be able to. I want to EAT, EAT, EAT before my pre-op. Is that terrible? Happy dance!!!!!

Congratulations to you!! Don't worry about going too crazy with the last meals. . you'll still be able to eat pretty much everything after you are banded, especially before you get filled to good restriction. BTW, be sure to take before pics and your measurements! You will want them later!

Best wishes,

Catherine

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
