New to the forum but not a new bandit.. A lonely bandit..



Recommended Posts

Hi all, just thought I'd sort of introduce myself..

I'm Erynn, In Mildura, Victoria. I was banded June 2008. Awesome to see everyone doing so well on here, if you don't have a support group you can go to, this is the next best thing!

Hopefully it can be my next best thing as I can't seem to find anyone else here from Mildura and I never had a support group...

So if you are from Mildura, Speak up! Would love to hear from you! :)

Cheers Everyone!

Thanks both of you. It'll be good to be able to come here with my queries and worries to see if other have experienced them before rushing off to the phone to call my surgeon. I think I should have found this earlier.. Early days weren't too easy on me, some support would have been nice!

Thanks again though. :thumbup:

      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.
