that was great you were able to go out to the church music festival. It sounds great. Is the weather there still hot?? YOu did well... and showers are a real gift from the Lord... especially after a long hot day away. dont over due it though... rest up well in between. Good luck.

I'm five days post op, feel great, back to work at our business, no lifting. No pain, slight reminders I'm healing from time to time. Lost 12 lbs since Monday, 30 lbs total since started the liquid diet two weeks preop. No pain meds, drinking my liquids, sleeping great! Even on my stomach. Old habits hard to control while sound asleep. Been a great experience so far. Wife was banded same day, she doing great, but has more discomfort than me. Hang in everyone, it gets so much better

      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.
