I really don't have any advice because I have not been banded yet but I just wanted to wish you good luck!

Hi:

Best wishes to you. I think that the best advice I can give is to think about it one pound at a time.

I wish I had measured myself before banding because it's sometimes hard to see the progress without a tangible measurement. Sometimes the scale won't move, but your clothes will become looser.

Good luck.

Sue

Congrats on your new life, you will be fine, the surgery is simple and it will be over before you know it. For recovery you will want to concentrate on just healing. You will loose, and you will gain but those 6 weeks are critical for you to heal so do just that. If you told family and friends they will be hovering and looking at what you eat, just go with the flow its ok they are looking out for you, even if they hover a lot! When you come back in here, go into the chat with any questions you may have, they are a great bunch of people and they are there to help you!

Take care and God Bless you!

      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...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        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.
