I've heard the Slimfast are no-nos too, but I don't really know why. However, for a few years now I've done the EAS Myoplex Lite Carb Control and really like them, especially in chocolate. Seventeen grams of Protein, four grams of carbs, about 100 cals.

Where do you get those, Beth?

The sell them at GNC, but for far too much money. I get them at Walmart for less than half the price. GNC sells them for about $10 for a pack of four, and WalMart sells the same stuff for about $4.97.

Hmm, what does that tell you? As I said in another thread, Lulu is my only FB friend. Very few on FB know about my surgery..

What, I am hurt that Lulu is the only worthy one of being your friend on FB. Actually, I think you will see that most of us never talk about the band there. I only comment to people who are out in the open about it and they post something related to it, then I will respond. You should be safe. Now add me, damnit! shane_yell.gif

I hear ya, I love it when I have what I call a "me day" when I am home all alone and get to play with my "toys". Yet, the family always feels guilty for leaving me. If they only knew that secretly I am actually pushing their bootys out the door!

Beth, not trying to piss you off or sound catty, but if you drank those for several years and still needed the band, maybe you should stop drinking them now? <ducking head and running for the door>

Since you're in the medical field, isn't there some sort of requirement that you have to be on call 24/7 and respond for requests to come in within a specific time period? Maybe that's just for doctors?

Oooohh, you bees SO bad! :(

I obviously need to clarify, otherwise I AM selling the product short, ain't I?

I love them for Breakfast because I am never hungry first thing in the morning. At least I used them when I dieted, and I'm using them still. On mushies it's hard to get all my Protein so I drink a couple a day.

I hope that helps! :eek:

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
