I usually hang out over on the complications forum, but we just got this cool "mini-Emmi" education program that Inamed set up for us. Check it out and let me know what you think:

It's kind of a watered-down version of the full Emmi, for people just looking into the band.

Dr. C,

My surgeon provides the full version of this for his patients. I think it is great! We were given a "secret password" to access it after our Initial visits. I also liked how the full version gives the patient an opportunity to write down questions that come up while viewing. My thanks to you and all surgeons that provide information and support.

Terry:)

am i the only one who has no idea what a mini-emmi is?

It's just the trademarked name for this educational video.

I would think PreOps would find it helpful. I think it's good that it explains that it's not a "Quick Fix." It also says that "LapBand surgery significantly changes your life."

I think it's PERFECT for folks wondering "what is the lapband." Very simple and short.

Thanks for sharing. Shawn

      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.
