Please forgive me if this has been posted before. I was just surfing around the net and stumbled across this site. Has some excellent recipies and other info. Seems to be a bit more for RNYers, but does have some great info for bandsters. http://store.bariatriceating.com/

LOVE this website. :clap2: I've been ordering my Protein from them since before surg. The nectar cappucino is GREAT. The AchieveOne Latte is out of this world. :) I add the nectar Roadside Lemonaid to my Crystal Light drinks. It's been the best way for me to get Protein in. I have NEVER had any problems ordering over the web and everything is delivered timely. You can't go wrong by ordering.

Her book is great too! Wonderful recipes. Can you tell I'm a fan :)

Hi Janet, this is Janet (LOL)....I'm going to be banded on 1/31 (coming up quick!), and have been researching Protein powders/drinks endlessly. Do you like the RTD Isopure that this website has? I need something for those quick binds at work or in my car so that I don't make a wrong choice. I;ve been on liquids since Thur (5 day liquids pre-op), and have been basically disgusted with powders. The only thing I have been able to do to "masK' the powders is throw in a spoon of Peanut Butter. So how are these drinks? Aftertaste?

Thanks!

Hello,

I've been lurking, but when I saw this topic I just had to post. I can't say enough about this website. The order processing and shipping is so fast!

If you are going to be banded, I recommend purchasing the "protein tasters packs." I honestly don't think there was a single one in there I hated.

The pre-made RTD "smoothies" are very good, but a bit too sweet for my tastes. Since my surgery (12/12/05) I have limited myself to less than 6 grams of sugar per meal. I find that I can't tolerate too much sweetness, artificial or otherwise now. You may be different.

My favorite is the Matrix 5.0. The chocolate is great and mixes very well with just a cocktail shaker. However, do yourself a favor and purchase a stick blender as well. The Achieve One lattes are also awesome if you like that kind of flavor.

In short, this site has made it completely enjoyable for me to get all my Protein. I also have a bottle of the chipolte BBQ Sauce and use it to mush up my chicken and fish. So good!

Her book is excellent as well. Even though she didn’t have the lapband (I think she had the RNY), her log of the mental struggles of being fat and loosing weight are inspirational.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
