I had my first consultation on Monday and am scheduled to be banded on Sept. 15. My doctor is Dr. Reilly in Houston. I was wondering if anyone else has used Dr. Reilly and what they thought of him. I haven't met him yet. I'll meet him when I have my EGD done on Aug. 25. I'm a little nervous about both procedures. The EGD makes me nervous because its just the thought of having a scope put down my throat. I know I will be knocked out but I'm still nervous. I'm nervous about the lap band because I've have tried every thing else to lose weight and this is my last hope. Also, I am financing this procedure and it's alot of money to shell out if it doesn't work. Has anyone ever regretted their decision to have the lap band done?

Thanks,

Lisa

      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.
