Hi!

Just found this site and especially hoping to hear from banders in Central VA. Would love the procedure and am just beginning my research. I'm scared, ashamed, nervous, short on funds, roller coaster of emotions...maybe you know the story. Would love to hear from you! Take care!!! sami

WELCOME! What I noticed when I first came here about a year ago is that anything I have gone through, so have many people on this site. I learned I am not alone but actually the opposite. You've come to the right place.

Welcome Sami

Gosh, I think we have ALL been there! but for me I just battled through and I have never regretted the decision I made to have lapband surgery...it has been challenging at times...working through my own mind barriers has been the hardest thing. but slowly but surely I am breaking through. This is a great place for info, advise even just a supportive clap or pat on the back so you have come to the right place...I am looking forward to keeping updated on your progress...so dont be a stranger now! you are 'home' here.

      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.
