I am currently on my pre op diet, my banding date is July 31st, I both excited and nervous.

I did the slimfast high Protein shakes. They were actually pretty delicious. I still do a shake for Breakfast. During the liquid diet, I did 4 shakes and lived on chicken broth, sugar free Jello and ice pops. You'll get through it, just try to stay positive [/quote

My nutritionist told me not to drink slim fast cause the tend to add weight. I use the chike Protein Shakes and the vanilla and chocolate are very good.

I am not hungry when I have a Protein Drink or make a shake with Protein Powder. Actually since pre op I cannot remember being hungry. Keep busy, work on a craft it something to keep your mind off food. Add doing something that makes YOU happy

I only had the headaches for a few days.

I only had headaches for a short period. They were horrible but they passed. Once I was on mushy food, they stopped.
