Hi Dana,

I will be banded the 21st! My pre op diet starts next Thursday and will be on liquids only for 3 weeks. My husband has been on his liquid only for 2 weeks now and is doing great...I am so proud and amazed at his incredible will power and determination, he's my true inspiration. I have always been heavy, my Mom remembers counting calories for me at about 8 to get some weight off. My highest was about 310 (to tell you the truth I am not exactly sure after I got on the scale and it was 300 I stopped weighing. I might have been bigger than 310 but I just have to guess). So I have done a lot on my own but after the baby I just didn't loose (I had gotten down to 204). So now I am looking forward to being about 150-160 and keeping it off. For me the band is not only about loosing but then being able to MAINTAIN!

      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.
