If You Could Change Something About Your Band..what Would You Change?



Recommended Posts

I really wish that either fills were and exact science where based on your stomach(internally) they could know the exact amount to put in for the green zone...or....that i could somehow externally tighten/loosen my band when i wanted to!

What would you change about your band?

I'm with Cindy, I would have done this years ago!!

I wish it was more uniform instead of fickle! Some days I can eat okay and other days I have trouble with everything.

Agreed. I would have done this years ago if I had known it would work like this. ;)

I wish I could change my band to shorten the "bandster he**" period.

Funny you mention this, there is a device that is rarely new that the surgeon can use at the time of surgery (goes down the throat) to fill the band and the device apparently measures multiple things and can find the perfect fill level (or so they say).

I wish I could find the thread on this, it was probably two or three months ago!

The only thing I would change is the consistency of restriction. Some days I hardly want to eat anything, other days I could eat a horse!

      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.
