December 7th bandsters



Recommended Posts

I am getting banded on December 7th. I have mixed feelings about the whole process but I am determined to see it through. Haiting the liquid diet!!! The shakes are so awful and I am finding it very difficult to choke them down. I have resorted to one egg a day in place of one of my four shakes. I also don't mind the chicken Soup but beyond that I struggle. I am wondering what happens if you don't follow the diet completely?

I am trying to be really strict on the diet since the date is getting closer. I don't want food in my system when I am trying to recover nor do I want to have problems being constapated after surgery with a sore stomach.

My surgery is in Spartenburg, SC. I think once we make it past the first two weeks, it should hopefully start to get easier.

I am also getting banded on December 7th! We need to be friends, ladies! My doctor isn't as particular. He says two shakes a day and then one sensible meal. I can only do one shake and two sensible meals. I am a teacher and I get extremely light headed if I do not eat. :( I am getting really excited but I have some major negativity surrounding me. I hate the negativity because it is making me more nervous. I wish it was Tuesday right now!!! I'm ready for a major life change.

      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...

      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.
