Glad you are trying again. I went back to work next day but I work from home I felt like I could have taken 3 days off and would not have suffered as much. Everyone is different.

You will hear good and bad about all the weight lost surgery. I am 8 days postop and have lost 13 pounds and am on no insulin as of right now. The reason I chose the lap band was like I am sure many people would have to agree is I did not want my insides rearranged. This is the best thing I could have done for myself. I also went back to work after 2 days but did tire out by the end of the day. My job does not require any physical labor.

I am 8 days myself I had a lot of back pain, I used the pain meds a couple days. But I was able to burb hours after surgery. A heating pad and Tylenol helped with the back pain. Let me share that from 2 week pre op diet until now I am 27 lbs lost. I only have 1 chin and when I look down I see my feet. I know it's going to slow down but I've blown away my 1st two goals in a week. Keep it up and follow your diet, the weak are self defeated and the strong leave a better looking corpse in the end. :-)

      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.
