Just my little introduction.



Recommended Posts

Hey there! Thought I'd introduce myself to the forum. Today I went to my 3rd pre-aproval Dr. visit - three more to go. My insurance requires 6 supervised visits, which will take me to August/September. I've been reading quite a bit the past few weeks. The site is helpful. Hopefully, when I have questions or thoughts my new LapBand family will help me out. It took me like 3 days just to figure out how to get a ticker posted. I e-mailed somone to help me, I hope they didn't mind, I was at my witts end! I then found a tutorial and finally got it! From what I've read it seems that the liquid phase both pre-op and post-op is the worst. Would you agree? What did your daily liquid menu consist of? Any helpful tips would be greatly appreciated! Hope to be talking with lots of you in the months to come.

Hi there and welcome to LBT, we are glad to have you here with us.

I had to do Optifast on my pre-op, so it was basically their shakes and their chicken Soup broth. It was tough, but so worth it!

Let us know if you have any questions, we are definitely happy to help.

Thank Susan! Where do you pick up the Optifast? I'm sure when I have my appt with the nutritionist, they will give me more information, but I'd like to get prepared and estimate costs and such.

      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.
