The surgery lasted 3hrs I had the lapband removed and the RNY done

Pain was 3-4 out of 10

Gas pains in left shoulder

Was up that night seating in a chair and walked the hall

Came home on Thursday with a drain tube in my left side

Doing fine drinking fluids 4oz in a hr

Up walking and sitting during the day

I got Monday to have my drainage tube removed

I would do this again in a heartbeat

List 9 lbs since Tuesday

Good luck

      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.
