I had my final appointment with the doctor today, to schedule the lap band surgery. We set the date for the 11th of May and to start the liquid diet tomorrow. Then the doctor tells me he has been scheduled for jury duty for the 10th and is hoping to get out of it on the 10th, but if he is unable to get out of the jury duty then I will have to stay on the liquid diet another week and we will reschedule for the next week. I kept the May 11th appointment, and now have my fingers crossed!! What would you have done? Would you have kept it or rescheduled for the 16th??

i have wanted this for sooo long (5 years) that i would probably reschedule it. it's only 5 days later. and i know i would be emotionally wrecked to have it cancelled and probably go on a binge eating! ('i'm a stress/emotional eater. ok i eat cuz the sun is shining. lol) no seriously i would reschedule and avoid the possible disappointment. just my 2 cents!:rolleyes:

      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.
