You can do the same with SF, FF pudding. I made it and it was yummy!

What flavor Isopure are you using for this? I purchased the punch but cannot stomach the taste...yours? Maybe the punch will be great with this recipe!! thanks for sharing!!

I got the call today that my surgery is tomorrow morning!!! It was supposed to be Friday but cancelled due to a plumbing issue. Yesterday they told me I would be very lucky to get in next Friday instead. Thank god I didn't bing eat or anything!!!!!!!! So I am just prepped my fridge and house, pulling the recliner out, and begging my coworkers to work for me next week! I have really appreciated the support here so far!

A question- home made turkey broth. Should I even try during my liquids stage or just keep it for when I am able to make Soups or need my mashed spuds thinned out?

do you mean should you have it while in liquid stage post op?? well, im making chicken broth and im having that the first stage..

Hello to the March 2012 Bandsters from a March 2008 bandster who is 4 years out and 120 lbs less than I was when I had surgery on St. Patrick's Day March 17, 2008. Hang in there - I would never want to go back.

I haven't been banded yet but have experimented with two different ones so far. I did the punch Isopure and strawberry Jello (pretty good). Then the blue Isopure and raspberry jello. So far so good

it sounds like it is.. did you get a chance to talk with your anaesthesiast before the surgery?/ i had a really good talk with mine on friday. i have a history of vomiting.. badly. im hoping that he has really got this one sorted out. i guess i will know on thursday, eh? .....

        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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
