Hello bandies.. Anyone know a good cleanse or pill that will help me shed some extra weight and clean my system out.. Or a good Water pill from Experience ?

laxatives do not help you lose weight. They are a quick/temporary fix at the very best . They can cause all sorts of problems and you can end up dependent on them. If you are constipated then it is OK to take them on a short term basis but other than that NO.

Surely the reason you got a band was so that you could give up this kind of dysfunctional behaviour?

If you are constipated take a Fiber gummie everyday. You sound like that is not the problem . I had to do a colon cleanse for the test and it was no picnic with the band some Drs do an unfill for that procedure because laxatives and the band do not go together .

This sounds like another way to lose weight that is just dysfunctional doesn't work and the weight loss is not real and now can really screw you up. You deserve an honest answer this sounds lika an old issue that needs some work.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      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.
