I was banded the 23rd and I am still doing my liquid diet. It seems like my other senses are so much stronger now. It's so strange. Anyways a girl friend of my had dinner party tonight and I went to support her, it was a very strange experience as well. All the smells were awesome, I wasn't hungry and I just tried not to think about food, perhaps I am not ready for events like this. When I arrived home I ran in the house and drank down some propel Water and swallowed down some Soup, now I feel sick and full!! I think I am a crazy person!! I really miss eating and I couldn't even enjoy my broth!! Any suggestions? :wink2:

Since I was banded on December 13, 2007, I have had a real issue with smells also. It seems that I have a heightened sense of smell and I cannot stand the smell of perfumes any longer. I have never had this issue before the band but from the day of my surgery, every perfume smells spoiled to me. I wonder if there is any correlation?

Propel Water and broth are not going to satisfy you when you are having hunger! If you are not using a good quality Protein supplement made for bariatric patients (not athetes!), then you are going to have a hard time. Drinking them warm is very soothing to the pouch and very calming. Drinking them blended with ice and water and maybe a little FF CoolWhip will take the place of sweets and Desserts. They'll also keep your muscles and your hair healthy. Find some you love!!

      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.
