Sweet Spot in Band and other Terms



Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone,

Im not banded yet for a couple of weeks still but I am reading stuff that I do not understand. What does "sweet spot in the band" mean exactly?

There are other terms that I don't understand, like PB'ing. What is that?

thanks to everyone who responds.

Here are some general terms: Abbreviations and What They Mean - LapBandTalk.com - Lap Band Talk Forum - The largest forum for Lap Band Discussion and Lap Band Support

The sweet spot is where your restriction is just right....not too tight so that you can eat almost anything you want but in small portions....but not too loose so that you get hungry between meals, can eat larger portions and you don't lose weight. The sweet spot is a rather elusive thing that comes and goes....requiring adjustments to your band (fills).

Thanks so much for responding. I appreciate the link also. How much have you lost so far?

      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.
