I would have to guess that sharing a life changing event is unifying. I feel this band has certainly changes my life and I enjoy sharing that experience with others.

We did a really significant and brave thing to ourselves and I love knowing that ya'll are out there. Who else can really understand the details of our daily experiences before and after banding.........

I visit the site every day as well. I am totally into it. I love hearing all the successes, challenges, NSVs, etc. It is life changing and a great support group.

I see this site as my support group. I also love to research the net and other threads to get good tips and like to post them on Lower Bmi thread so I have a place to refer to all I find more conveniently as well as share.

My friend is having gastric bypass and had to take six months of classes to learn how to deal with the mental stuff.

I see this group as doing the same thing for me. It really helps to know you are not going through things alone.

I love this forum. I visit every day, it really kind of helps keep me in touch with the reality of living with the band.

It is a great resource for questions and other little facts about being a bandster that months of pre-research didn't give me.

The warmth and friendliness of the other posters is just so wonderful and encouraging.

Its just a nice feeling to connect with others who face the same daily challenges and choices.

      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.
