Calling All MARCH '09 Bandsters - We need a name!



Recommended Posts

My surgery date is March 4th and I am on day 2 of my pre op clear liquid diet. The only I can say is that is sucks. I am doing good on it but tonight I had 2 chick nugg and a spoonful of rice. I know its bad and I dont want to ruin my surgery but if I didnt I felt like i was gonna pass out. I have no energy at all. Any ideas for Protein Drinks i have tried the EAS and do not like them, it reminds me of the barium swallow I had to do for my upper gi. thanks guys and I love the name...LUCKY LOSERS!

Hello all!

I'm just a few days off from surgery on 3/3. Has anyone experienced sadness about this whole thing. I guess I'm sad that I'm addicted to food and have to resort to surgery. I am also sad that I didn't have this done a long time ago, what a waste, so many diets, so much misery when you gain it back. I'm not saying that I regret this step it just makes me look back at all the time and effort put into weight loss over the years. Well, I do truly think this is the correct answer, it is the right tool for me. Guess there are all sort of emotions that come up. Anyone else feeling this way?

Amen, Sister. I feel all of that as well. My date is March 9th. I am READY. Let's get through this next month and we'll be feeling so much better by Easter!

Hi, Sounds like you've been doing alot of reflecting. I can honestly say I feel the same way. I look back and wonder how I became this overweight person? Your right about it being an addiction. I know this because my husband had a gambling addiction years ago; (don't worry, he's in full recovery, god bless him) I remember what he and I went through. Same senerio, he had to gamble and I had to over eat, always wanting what we shouldn't have. Now we both can be on a road of recovery together, I hope. Best of Luck with your surgery and I hope everything goes smoothly for you.

"TO THE NEW YOU"

      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.
