Former Lap-Band, Current Sleeve..



Recommended Posts

4 years ago I was desperate for a change. I went to my doctor to discuss The Lap-Band surgery. I got the surgery in January of 2010 and weighed 340 lbs at the time of the surgery. I lost over 100 lbs on the Lap-Band within one years time.I managed to keep the weight off for a while then it slowly crept back on.

I was finally at a point where the band began to give more so many problems and I had to have it removed. By the time I had it removed I already had gained 60-65 lbs back. When I had it removed I knew that I had to go ahead and inquire about the sleeve because I felt all of my same bad habits falling back into place.. Overeating, always hungry, eating bad foods, drinking when I eat.. etc....

Now, I got the sleeve done This past Thursday, June 19th and have so many mixed emotions about it already. I feel sadness, anger towards myself, and disappointment... Im not sure why I feel all of these things. I just pray that my life can get back to normal asap..

I feel so tired and drained all day long....

I think a therapist may be able to help you sort all this out. Please do your best to get as much Water and Protein in as possible.

      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...

        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.
