Hi, I have been going back and forth for over a year trying to decide if I wanted to do this. I basically at 35yo have metabolic syndrome(high chol, trig, b/p etc....) I dont know if its weight related, but my heart rhythm changed about 6mo. ago and this has been the deciding factor. I am really excited and cant wait to start my new journey. I will begin drinking the Protein Shakes in the morning, and my band is scheduled for March 9, 2011!!!

I can have shakes, Water, tea, coffee, sugar free Jello, yogurt and cottage cheese (in moderation). It's an adjustment but one I believe to be well worth it!
