I was super nervous the day before my surgery but everything went textbook! I was surprised by how fast it went! I was banded 3 weeks ago and do not regret it for one second! My tip is to buy some gas reliever! I wish I had bought some Gas-X before I got home because I sure needed it. Another tip from me is make sure you drink as much of your daily Water a day. It really helps! And the itchy sutures are normal! :-)

HI Amanda, my name is Deb- my surgery is set for March 7th. I know that nervous feeling. After a year of preparation, it is nearly here. I am excited and ready to start my new healthier life. I have been doing Leslie Sansones walking tapes at home and it does make me feel less stressed. Best wishes in your journey.

Well mine is happening very quickly because I am in the military and they are pushing for it before we deploy... so I am just hoping I have no regrets

      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.
