Hi everyone! Well tomorrow is my day, I'm feeling so many things right now. nervous, anxious, excited! I don't think i'm too nervous about the actual sergury, because i've had surgeries before. I'm more anxious about afterward. I'm praying for a speedy recovery, and i'm hoping that I can come on tomorrow night and tell you all my experiences so far.

You'll do fine. I was banded exactly 1 week ago and despite some abdominal pain I feel great. I think that your positive attitude will help you through those first few days of recovery.

Good luck!!!

I had surgery on April 24th ..I feel that eating slow you can feel your tummy is full, doesn't take much. I'm really happy I had it done. no hair loss, I do make sure I get all my Protein in any way I can that helps for hair loss and good health.

      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.
