Hello All, Looking To Meet Some Fellow Bandsters.



Recommended Posts

My name is Jo, I am 25 and fairly new to Richmond, Va. I moved here in February and am loving it. I was banded in May of 2011 with a starting weight of 320 and have lost a total of 129 pounds. I work full time and attend school part time so it has been a bit difficult to find time to fit in some exercise. I really want to tighten everything up :). I look forward to meeting fellow bandsters. It is beautiful out today!

Hello Yolanda! Just like Lapband Princess says, don't be nervous. The anticipation is the worst part, at least it was for me. Not quite sure where you're at in Spotsy but I live off of Gordon Road. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you need anything. I've been banded just about 5 yrs now, actually January 30 will be my 5 yrs. Who's your surgeon? Look forward to chatting with you soon

      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.
