  • I WISH WHERE I LIVED WE HAD A SUPPORT GROUP

where do you live? One of the drs I went to a seminar on sounded like he had a great one but I am going with another dr. but wish he had a good one. Maybe you could start one? I'm in Utah and would have no idea how to start something like that lol but would love it if someone did!

OMG it's true mashed potatoes are my go to food when eating out, and I crave them at home... don't have them but once or twice a week but when I want comfort food it is mashed potatoes , or mac and cheese true 4 oz is enough but I do not want to ever get hung up on a certain food again any body else have the mashed potatoe thing going on???????????????

I have a question, has your dr. or anyone else's given them specific foods they can't ever have again? I figure junk food and soda etc will be no-nos but what about "regular" foods? My one banded friend can't seem to eat any bread, Pasta, etc. at all or she gets plugged...

      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.
