DO NOT REMOVE THE TAPE (its holding your skin together) I'm 18 days post op & my tape is just now coming off. Congratulations on your band!

I'm sorry to say its just now 1month after my lapband sx and I'm just now getting back to normal! I did develop a hematoma under my port incision though. So that was scary an painful I'm literally just now getting around with no pain after one month but all ppl heal different. Good luck!

Don't play doctor, keep the tapes on. After showering, dont rub, pat them dry. My surgeon told me to stay on Stage 1 (liquids & clear) for 14 days. The longer the better to give your stomach a chance to relax. I can drink my Protein shakes per my doctor. I freeze them for 40-45 and make the ice cold taste great.

I'm on 5 days since band on Aug 6 and I feel great. No more pain anywhere and no more vicodin.

Best wishes on your recovery

      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.
