Hi all hope you are having a great Monday. So got the call today saying I can schedule my initial consultation with the surgeon and I got in tomorrow!! Woo woo! This is starting to become more real but I am very excited and determined. Anything I should be prepared for about tomorrow and any suggestions on things to ask?

My team had a nurse who answered ALL the questions so by the time I got to the actual Dr. most everything had been answered. :wacko:

Why is it the best surgery for you? meal plans? :huh: First fill date? Rules for the lap band...etc. etc. Good Luck. Keep me posted.

I am 4 weeks post op as of last Friday. Down 25#'s so far and not really hungry until now. My first fill will be Aug. 5th. I AM So excited about my new journey. :wub:

Congrats!

As for questions....so many!

meal plan? Pre & post op diets? do's & don'ts? fills? after care?

My best advise is read as much of this forum tonight and make a list from there.

Good luck to you and welcome!!!

      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.
