Band of sisters



Recommended Posts

Hi from Southern California. We are new to the site but we've been visiting often. This is a great site with lots of information been reading and gathering great information almost daily.

My sister and I are doing this together. We started the process, in Februray and we are scheduled to be banded on Thursday May 14th, 2009. We attended all the classes and had our appointments on the same days. We have the same surgeon and are scheduled back to back for our procedures. We are excited, nervous and scared but it's great to be going through this together and supporting each other.

Congratulations and good luck! It is wonderful having someone to go through this process with you. My friend and I were banded by the same surgeon. She had hers done on July 2 and I was on July 14. It has been really helpful to have someone else to talk to.

Thank you for the well wishes. We are pretty excited and can't believe that in 10 days this is really happening.

      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.
