Hey kim, congrats!!! You'll be feelin' 100 % better very soon, I'm sure!

Is Maalox for gas relief? I thought it was a heartburn thing. If it's for gas relief, and it helps, and its chewable or liquid, it should be fine!!

yup to the demerol, but that doesn't help and demerol can be addictive so I am staying away from it, just took it twice. Hetaing pad yes to that too, but man oh man, this feeling of fullness in my lower left side, ouch. not fun just want to FART!!! and blow my house down!

Hi Kim, I'm glad to hear you are doing okay. Well, apart from the pain that is. Sounds like most people are over the worst of it in a few days, so hopefully you'll be feeling well soon.

I go in for my consult on the 25th...I'm still not sure about what I'm going to do. Please let me know how you are doing...your kind of like my guinea pig (in a nice way of course).

Take care, take care of yourself and hope to hear from you soon.

OKAY...I was only curious as my fill is on 25th and if you were going to TLBC I might have run into you. OOOPS....however I just realized that my fill this time is not at TLBC...it is at the hospital so that it can be done under fluro this time!! So nevermind!! LOL....Moot point.

Anyways...good luck at your consult. Go armed with all your questions!!

Thanks - too bad your fill is at the hospital. I'm sure at some point in time we will all meet.

"under fluro" - what is that?

I have lots of questions to ask the Dr. I'm writing them down as they come up. The thing that helps the most though is talking to you banders...you guys can tell it like it is.

Can you think of anything I should ask the Dr that is really important? What are the best and worst things about the band?

Thanks so much and good luck with your weightloss!!!

rat girl,( man I hope i find out your real name, kinda feel weird calling some one rat girl.) Okay still on the mend. Look do not take me as guinea pig, there are many here and all are different BUT what I got out of this is that people are happy they did it and would not change it. We all heal differently and you are younger than me so that should help. I was at TBLC and i think many are happy there as I also hear many happy with dr coburn who sounds sweet too. I have to say being a medical professional, we make the worst patients, and dr yau ended up coming and holding my hand as I was being put under. First thing I did when I was leaving was find him, hug him, and say thanks. This is a huge change for me in many ways and I think not only am i going through some physical stuff, I think it is emotional for me as well for whatever reason, I mean, do we all know why we eat and why we choose what we eat? I am also VERY new here and I find, Yoda, laila, mandi( argon) cloe and some others who have been my wind beneath my wings so to speak, THEY are the real inspiration here and I am just a baby. They have collectively experienced it all and i think they are best to answer questions as I still have many for them.

I thnak you for keeping your eyes out for me and I am sure you will be great.

Kim

      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.
