I live in Caldwell, Dr. Valentine just did my Lap Band a week ago, I go for a follow up thursday...my twin sister had dr Korn, I do not like him as well as Valentine, sorry...she had the bypass done 3 years ago she lost 200 pounds but she has a lot of health issues now....Dr. Valentine to me is a good Dr and has a great personality...he's not just out for the money as far as I can tell so far.

Your welcome...Valentine shows videos of the actual procedure, my husband sat there with his eyes closed while the videos were showing he can't stomach that stuff, LOL....I found it helped me to understand it further...I hope you will too.

What's you name, I'm Pattie...have a identical twin Paula, who got the bypass...i am so glad I didn't get that done...she lost 200 pounds tho, but she has all kinds of health issues...not from the surgery tho.

Good luck...I think you will enjoy Valentines seminar.

Hey ya Pattie! Im Kristina, thanks for the advice. I decided on the lap band instead of gastric bypass because of the health risks and permanence of the bypass. I dont like the risk factors of the bypass either.

      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.
