Hello. I joined tonight to ask a question about slippage concerns. I'm a 50 year old female, had my surgery in September 09, starting weight was 283 and I've gotten down to 208 ... but am at 212 following too many sweets during the holidays. I have been going to Curves for all of 2010, but recently ended that membership to join my work fitness program (cheaper and hours work for me better). I pulled a muscle in early December so have laid off the whole month, but plan to get back to work shortly. My post tonight is because I'm scared about my band slipping if I start vomiting from a virus that's going through my family right now. All 3 of my kids have it, plus 5 other extended family members have had it... I know my husband and I are next. Anybody out there that's been through that, let me know if your band survived. Oh... had my surgery through the Baylor College of Medicine clinic program, but my doctor left there a few months ago and is now with The Methodist Hospital in Houston. Dr. Vadim Sherman. I had a great experience with his program at Baylor, but have only seen him once since he moved hospitals -- the 12 month follow up last September. I'm due to go back in March for a regular follow up.

      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.
