Tasha, nervousness is normal. I'm so happy with my band so far. I'm seven weeks post-op and I feel 100% better already. Good luck!

Thank you that is reassuring to me. I am just trying to take it day by day but this pre op diet is kind rough.

I hope your surgery goes as quick and easy as mine did. No horror stories here ! I was at the hospital @5:30 am, surgery @7am, home nearby @11:30 am ! Couch surfed for 2 days with hourly walking, and then felt fine , just sore on the left side. Back to work on the 8 th day, felt great, and started loosing weight right away. Followed my Drs orders and dropped 50 lbs in the 1st 7 months. I hope everything goes smoothly for you ! Good luck !!

Don't worry!

I had mine done last Saturday. Checked in at 8:30, surgery at 10, awake at 11, discharged at 1:30.

No pain at all. Back at work for a few hours three days later

You can do it!

      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.
