I would also be interested in getting intouch with you ladies. I am 29 I am married have two kiddos 5 and 4. I live in Chicago. I have 100 pounds to loose. I just got the lap band last Thursday I am going to give this my all. I want to lose the weight to be healthier! I'm so young and I have so much to look forward to. I am disappointed in my self that I gave up. But I realized that I could change that I didn't have to be limited on the things I could do like fitting in a seat or going to an amusement park with my family and not worrying if ill fit in the seats and deal with the embarrassment that I cause not only myself but my family too. I need someone to be there for me that is going through the same thing I am because no matter how supportive my family can be they don't really understand what I'm going through. I promise ill be super supportive, active and always there for you. Send me a message if you are interested. Thanks.

I'm 29, married and have two kids. I was banded jan 22. I need to lose a total of 85 pounds. As of now I'm down almost 17. What about starting a group chat through whatsapp?

I have no idea what WhatsApp is... I am about to search for it though. How do we find each other on it?

It's an app. I think we need to add each other by phone number. It works better for me because I'm living in Israel. It's free for all of us.

      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.
