I was banded yesterday morning by Dr. Kirschenbaum in Colorado. It was a great experience for me. I was totally nervous because I had never had surgery before. The staff was awesome and helped me through my anxiety. I feel some pain but nothing unbearable and I am so excited to start my new life. Anyone else banded yesterday???

I was banded yesterday also. I great experience in the hospital. I am sore today but I am up moving around trying to get rid of this gas pain. How much can you drink at one time? I can hold 2oz. like the doctor said but sometimes I stop earlier. Keep in touch.

Hello! I was banded Jan 23rd and have now graduated to mashed stuff! I was sooooo ready for food and am happy that I'm feeling satisfied with such a small amount of food...pureed as it is! lol. The worst day so far was the superbowl and all the smells from food cooking......not that I was hungry but man.....the smell of food was driving me crazy!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
